Plain-English Summary

This bill would require employers to clearly disclose all fees they charge workers, such as uniform costs, tool purchases, or training expenses, upfront before hiring or deducting money from paychecks. The goal is to prevent workers from being surprised by unexpected charges that reduce their actual take-home pay. The law would apply to most employers and give workers better information about the true cost of employment.
