An Act relative to railroad workers' earned sick time

This bill requires private railroad companies, their contractors, and the rail and transit division of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (when providing rail service) to provide earned sick time to their workers. It mandates compliance with the existing minimum sick leave standards outlined in Section 148c of Chapter 149, which applies to most Massachusetts workers. The law directly affects railroad employees covered by these entities, ensuring they receive sick leave benefits consistent with state law for non-railroad workers.
