ID H0558

Amends the definition of "employee" in Idaho Code Section 59-1302 to exclude positions that do not exceed 8 consecutive months in a calendar year if the employer certifies the position is seasonal or casual and affected by weather and the growing season.

Applies the exclusion to positions with cities, counties, irrigation districts, and other employers, including parks, golf courses, and irrigation positions.

Employees in these excluded seasonal or casual positions are not covered by the Public Employee Retirement System.

Expands an existing exclusion that previously applied only to city and county employers to now explicitly include irrigation district employers and specify irrigation positions.
