Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act. Provides that an employer shall reimburse an employee for all necessary expenditures or losses incurred by the employee directly related to services performed for the employer. Requires the Department of Labor to adopt rules implementing the requirement.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill, but with the following changes: Provides that the expenditure must be within the scope of employment. Deletes examples of necessary expenses. Requires an employee statement if documentation is missing. Requires rules and interpretation of law to be consistent with federal law. Removes a requirement that the Department of Labor adopt rules to protect the interests of both parties in cases of disputed reimbursement.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Provides that an employer is not responsible for losses due to an employee's own negligence, losses due to normal wear, or losses due to theft unless the theft was a result of the employer's negligence. Provides that if the written expense reimbursement policy of an employer establishes specifications or guidelines for necessary expenditures, the employer is not liable for the portion of the expenditure amount that exceeds the specifications or guidelines of the policy.
