What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill provides that for the purposes of the minimum wage law and worker's
compensation law an individual who is a participant in a clinical research trial and
receives remuneration, a stipend, or compensation for participating in the trial is not
an employee of the entity that conducts the trial. The bill also provides that such
services are not considered covered employment under the unemployment insurance
(UI) law. As a consequence, amounts paid by employers for those services are not
subject to UI contribution requirements and those wages are not counted as base
period wages for purposes of determining eligibility for UI benefits.
