FL H0325

Adds payroll debit card and electronic funds transfer as permitted payment methods for labor pools to compensate day laborers, in addition to existing cash and negotiable instrument options.

Requires labor pools to notify day laborers before their first pay period of the intended payment method and allow workers to elect a different method, including the option to decline payroll debit card or electronic funds transfer payments.

When selecting payroll debit card payments, labor pools must offer day laborers the option to elect electronic funds transfer and provide a list of nearby businesses that do not charge fees for card withdrawals.

Permits labor pools to deliver wage statements electronically upon written request by the day laborer, rather than requiring only written statements at time of payment.

Takes effect July 1, 2015.
