This bill amends the Division of Workforce Services Law by modifying the exclusions from the definition of "employment." Specifically, it addresses services performed as personal care services for certified home- and community-based health services providers. The amendment clarifies that these services are excluded from the definition of employment unless the provider is a state or local government entity, a federally recognized Indian tribe, or a nonprofit organization. Additionally, the bill retroactively applies this exclusion to January 1, 2010.
Furthermore, the bill introduces a new provision stating that this exclusion will expire on September 30, 2023. This change aims to provide clarity and a timeline for the application of the exclusion, ensuring that stakeholders are aware of the temporary nature of this provision.
