SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Payment of wages and salaries; wage payments.  Authorizes employers to pay wages and salaries to an employee hired after January 1, 2010, by credit to a prepaid debit card or card account, without the employee's affirmative written consent, if the employee fails to designate a financial institution to which payment could be made by electronic automated fund transfer and the employer arranges for the card or card account to be issued through a network system through which the employee will have the ability to make at least one free withdrawal or transfer per pay period, which withdrawal may be for any amount in the card or card account, using such card at a participating financial institution. Currently, payment via prepaid debit card or card account requires the affirmative consent of the employee, though such consent is not required if the employee has not designated a financial institution to which payment by electronic automated fund transfer could be made and the employee is employed at an amusement park.
