The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6820, aims to amend title 31 of the general statutes to establish a new requirement for per diem employees. Specifically, the bill stipulates that any per diem employee who has been employed for more than six months must be compensated at the same rate of pay as other part-time or full-time employees within the same organization. This change seeks to ensure equitable pay for per diem workers who have demonstrated a longer-term commitment to their employer.

The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces the new legal language that mandates equal pay for per diem employees after six months of employment. The intent behind this legislation is to promote fairness in compensation practices and to recognize the contributions of per diem employees in the workforce.
