Assembly Bill 367 proposes amendments to Wisconsin's labor laws to exempt minor league baseball players from minimum wage, overtime pay, and recordkeeping requirements. Specifically, the bill creates a new statute, 103.023, which states that individuals under contract to play minor league baseball and compensated through a collective bargaining agreement that outlines wages and working conditions are exempt from the state's minimum wage and overtime regulations. Additionally, the bill introduces a new provision under 104.01 (2) (b) 6, which explicitly identifies these minor league players as exempt from certain labor requirements.

Furthermore, the bill amends existing law under 104.09 to clarify that employers are not required to keep records of hours worked for individuals who fall under the exemptions provided in the new sections. This change aims to streamline the regulatory framework for minor league baseball players, allowing them to operate under the terms of their collective bargaining agreements without the constraints of standard labor laws.
