Provides that an employer, or agent or officer of an employer, violates the Act if he or she takes an adverse action against, or in any other manner discriminates against, any person exercising a right under the Act. Makes changes in provisions concerning definitions; exemptions; allowable work hours; employment certificates; investigations; civil penalties; and criminal penalties. Corrects technical errors. Effective January 1, 2025, except provisions concerning minors featured in vlogs and trust funds are effective July 1, 2024.
