Legislative Bill 32 amends the Nebraska Healthy Families and Workplaces Act by redefining key terms and altering enforcement provisions. Notably, the definition of "employee" is expanded to include individuals employed in agricultural jobs of a seasonal or temporary nature, while excluding those under sixteen years of age and those working fewer than eighty hours in a calendar year. The bill also modifies the definition of "employer" to include those with at least eleven employees, up from one, and introduces a new classification for "small business" as an employer with at least eleven but fewer than twenty employees.

In terms of enforcement, the bill outlines the process for issuing citations to employers suspected of violations, including notification procedures and penalties. The maximum administrative penalty for a first violation is set at five hundred dollars, while subsequent violations can incur penalties of up to five thousand dollars. Additionally, the bill removes provisions that allowed employees to sue for violations of the Act, instead focusing on administrative penalties and the contestation process for citations. The original sections of the Initiative Law 2024, No. 436, are repealed to accommodate these changes.
