TO 2007 ASSEMBLY BILL 531
December 4, 2007 - Offered by
Committee on Homeland Security and State
Preparedness.
AB531-ASA1,1,5
1An Act to amend 109.03 (1) (e) of the statutes;

2wage payments to part-time fire fighters and emergency medical technicians
3who are members of a volunteer fire department or emergency medical services
4program maintained by a public organization or who are members of a private,
5nonprofit volunteer fire company.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Current law generally requires an employer to pay an employee his or her
wages by no later than 31 days after the date on which the wages are earned. Current
law, however, permits a volunteer fire fighter or a volunteer emergency medical
technician, by agreement with the entity employing the volunteer, to be paid
semiannually or annually. This substitute amendment permits a part-time fire
fighter or a part-time emergency medical technician who is a member of a volunteer
fire department or emergency medical services program maintained by a county, city,
village, or town or of a private, nonprofit volunteer fire company, by agreement with
the entity employing the fire fighter or emergency medical technician, to be paid at
regular intervals, but no less often than annually.
