Preserves the right to unemployment benefits for voluntary separation due to unsafe or unhealthy working conditions.

The bill amends the labor law to ensure that employees who voluntarily leave their jobs due to unsafe or unhealthy working conditions can still receive unemployment benefits. This includes situations where the employer has caused, maintained, or refused to address hazards such as exposure to physical, chemical, or biological hazards, harassment, violence, or other conditions that make the work environment unreasonably dangerous or unsafe. The bill specifies that such voluntary separations will not disqualify employees from receiving unemployment benefits.
