Massachusetts S1632 provides safeguards for home healthcare workers, including protections against workplace violence and requirements for employer.

Massachusetts S1632 aims to enhance the safety and rights of home healthcare workers by mandating several protective measures. Home healthcare employers must post notices about workers' rights and responsibilities in multiple languages. They are required to conduct safety assessments before services begin, provide annual workplace safety training, and equip workers with communication devices. Employers must also allow workers to take up to seven days of leave without penalty if they are victims of assault or battery in the line of duty.
