HA 1 to HS 1 for HB 360

Synopsis

This amendment replaces the definition of “joint employee” with “employee placed by employment agency” to make clear that such employees are protected against sexual harassment. This amendment also changed the definition of independent contractor by using a definition already existing in Title 19. This amendment also clarifies that employers can distribute the information sheet physically or electronically to employees. This amendment removes the requirement that an employer provide 90 minutes of sexual harassment training, but requires the Department of Labor to post to its website a list of trainings that meet the requirements under subsection (h). Finally, this amendment clarifies which employees are required to be counted and trained under subsection (h).
