Labor Law - Child Labor Penalties, Private Sector Employee Labor Relations, and State Employee Labor Standards
Approved by the Governor - Chapter 167
Summary
It raises fines for employers who break Maryland’s child‑labor rules, makes it illegal for a company to create a workplace union that the employer can dissolve, gives certain private‑sector employees the right to bring disputes before the Public Employee Relations Board, and bars state executive units from applying for waivers of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act. The changes aim to strengthen protections for minors, private workers and state employees.
