HB769

Montana HB769 revises meal allowance computation for employees working night shifts.

Montana HB769 amends the computation of meal allowances for employees, particularly those working night shifts. The bill specifies the hours during which employees are eligible for meal allowances, adjusting the time frames for night-shift workers. It also allows eligible employees to receive up to two meal allowances if travel begins before or ends after their assigned shift, provided the travel does not exceed 24 hours. Additionally, it grants midday meal allowances to appointed members of state boards, commissions, or councils attending meetings, except during legislative sessions.
