HD 2799 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act removing barriers to justice in the workplace

This bill amends Section 5 of Chapter 151B by extending the deadline for filing workplace discrimination claims from 300 days to 3 years. It directly affects workers who experience discrimination, giving them more time to take legal action. The key provision changes a specific time limit in the law, making it easier for individuals to seek justice without rushing to file within a shorter window. This is a procedural adjustment to existing law, not a new policy. The change applies to all claims covered under Chapter 151B.
