This Act clarifies that for purposes of the Family and Medical Leave Insurance Program, where an employee is co-employed by an employee leasing company or a professional employment organization, "employer" refers to the employer client of the employee leasing company or professional employment organization, and not to the employee leasing company or professional employment organization. This Act also defines "collective bargaining agreement" for purposes of the Family and Medical Leave Insurance Program and excludes from the definition of "employee" individuals who are covered by a collective bargaining agreement as a member of a labor organization, who receive employment benefits through the labor organization, and who, due to the nature of the industry in which they work, may never qualify as a covered individual under the Family and Medical Leave Insurance Program. .
