HB 2644 Creates new provisions relating to sheltered workshops

Current Bill Summary

- Prepared by Senate Research -


HB 2644 - Under this act, the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education shall, beginning July 1, 2018, and thereafter, pay to each sheltered workshop a sum equal to an amount as calculated under this act to ensure that at least $21 dollars is paid for each 6 hour or longer day worked by a handicapped employee.

This act repeals a provision of existing law relating to payment to sheltered workshops and the creation of a "Sheltered Workshop Per Diem Revolving Fund".

This act has an emergency clause.

This act is identical to a provision in the truly agreed to and finally passed SS/HB 1415 (2018) and the truly agreed to and finally passed CCS/HCS/SB 743 (2018).
