The proposed bill aims to amend Arkansas law by waiving occupational or professional license fees for employees of state agencies. It introduces a new section, 17-1-111, which defines key terms such as "occupational or professional license," "occupational or professional licensing entity," and "state agency." The bill specifies that any licensing entity must waive fees for individuals employed by state agencies who require such licenses to fulfill their job responsibilities.

However, the waiver does not apply to individuals who have been employed by the state agency for less than one year or those working on a part-time basis. This legislation seeks to alleviate financial burdens on state employees who need licenses to perform their duties, thereby promoting workforce stability and efficiency within state agencies.
