Summary
This bill amends the Fair Labor Standards Act to remove exemptions that currently exclude certain home care workers from federal minimum wage and overtime protections. Specifically, it narrows the exemption for domestic service employment to apply only to casual babysitting (irregular or intermittent work), and eliminates the separate exemption for home care workers such as home health aides and personal care aides. The bill defines babysitting services as custodial care of infants or children in a private home and excludes trained personnel like nurses and home care workers from that definition.
