The bill adds the same exclusion to the 'Workers' Compensation Act of Colorado', the 'Paid Family and Medical Leave Insurance Act', and provisions concerning wages repeals that exclusion and adds clarifying language regarding how the independent contractor test should be applied to determine whether such individuals are employees. The bill adds the same clarifying language to the provisions concerning wages.(Note: Italicized words indicate new material added to the original summary; dashes through words indicate deletions from the original summary.)(Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.)
