Complete·6/22/26

New Hampshire SB655 modifies rules for employee leasing companies, workers' compensation, and exempts minor league baseball players from minimum wage.

New Hampshire SB655 amends regulations for employee leasing companies, requiring that client companies must provide workers' compensation insurance for leased employees, regardless of who maintains the policy. The bill also specifies that neither the leasing company nor the client company can be held vicariously liable for the other's actions. Additionally, it exempts minor league baseball players from minimum wage laws if they are compensated under a collective bargaining agreement. The bill repeals previous rules that required leasing companies to pay for workers' compensation insurance.
