The proposed bill aims to prohibit employers in Washington State from requesting, requiring, or coercing employees to have microchips implanted in their bodies. A new section is added to chapter 49.44 RCW, defining key terms such as "employer," "employee," and "microchip." The bill specifies that a microchip is a device implanted subcutaneously that contains personal information and a unique identification number, but excludes devices used for medical purposes.

Additionally, the bill provides a legal recourse for employees who feel aggrieved by violations of this prohibition. Affected employees may file a civil action in court, where they can seek various forms of relief, including injunctive relief, actual damages, punitive damages, and coverage for reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. This legislation aims to protect employee autonomy and privacy in the workplace.
