An Act securing the application of Massachusetts law to employees of employers incorporated or operating in Massachusetts who provide their labor and services remotely

This bill ensures Massachusetts labor laws apply to remote workers who perform services for employers based in Massachusetts, regardless of where the worker lives. It directly affects remote employees working for companies incorporated, headquartered, or operating in Massachusetts. The key provision states that Massachusetts law governs all employment terms (like pay, benefits, and working conditions) unless the employer and employee have a clear, written, individually negotiated contract specifying another jurisdiction's laws - and the employer complies with that jurisdiction's requirements. If the contract's chosen jurisdiction isn't followed, Massachusetts law automatically applies. The law takes effect on January 1, 2026.
