Summary

The law obligates any employer who hosts a student in an on‑site apprenticeship, pre‑apprenticeship or similar work‑based learning placement to obtain workers' compensation insurance for that student. It applies to schools, charter schools and industry talent associations that connect students with employers, but excludes virtual or one‑time career visits. The measure replaces the older School‑to‑Work rules and sets uniform, age‑neutral underwriting standards for related insurance policies.
