1 1 Section 1. Section 89.2, subsection 4, Code 1999, is
1 2 amended by striking the subsection and inserting in lieu
1 3 thereof the following:
1 4 4. "Public assembly" means the assembly of people in any
1 5 of the following:
1 6 a. A building or structure primarily used as a theater,
1 7 motion picture theater, museum, arena, exhibition hall,

1 17 However, for purposes of this chapter, "public assembly"

1 20 or in any building used exclusively by an employer for
1 21 training or instruction of its own employees.
1 22 Sec. 2. Section 89A.1, Code Supplement 1999, is amended by

1 24 NEW SUBSECTION. 16A. "Owner" means the owner of a
1 25 facility, unless the facility is a new installation or is
1 26 undergoing major alterations, in which case the owner shall be
1 27 considered the person responsible for the installation or
1 28 alteration of the facility until the facility has passed final
1 29 inspection by the division.
1 30 Sec. 3. NEW SECTION. 91A.14 FORMER EMPLOYEES.
1 31 The rights and obligations outlined in this chapter
1 32 continue until they are fulfilled, even though the employer-

1 35 EXPLANATION
2 1 This bill makes changes or adds to definitions in the
2 2 boiler law and the elevator law, and specifically provides for
2 3 the applicability of the Iowa wage payment collection law to
2 4 former employees.
2 5 The bill replaces the definition of "places of public
2 6 assembly" with a definition for "public assembly", defining
2 7 the term to mean, in the context of the boiler law, the
2 8 assembly of people in a building or structure primarily used
2 9 as a theater, motion picture theater, museum, arena,
2 10 exhibition hall, school, college, dormitory, bowling alley,
2 11 physical fitness center, family entertainment center, lodge
2 12 hall, union hall, pool hall, casino, place of worship, funeral
2 13 home, institution of health and custodial care, hospital, or
2 14 child care or adult day care. The term also includes a
2 15 building or structure, a portion of which is primarily used
2 16 for amusement, entertainment, or instruction, as well as any
2 17 building or structure owned by or leased to the state, or its
2 18 agencies or political subdivisions. However, the term does
2 19 not include the assembly of people in eating and drinking
2 20 establishments or in any building used exclusively by an
2 21 employer for employee training or instruction.
2 22 The bill creates in Code chapter 89A a definition of
2 23 "owner" of a facility. A facility is defined in that chapter
2 24 to mean an elevator, dumbwaiter, escalator, moving walk, lift,
2 25 or inclined or vertical wheelchair lift subject to regulation
2 26 under that chapter, and includes hoistways, rails, guides, and
2 27 all other related mechanical and electrical equipment. Under
2 28 the bill, "owner" means the owner of the facility unless the
2 29 facility is a new installation or is undergoing major
2 30 alterations, in which case the person installing or altering
2 31 the facility is the owner until the elevator has passed final
2 32 inspection by the division.
2 33 The bill also establishes that the Iowa wage payment
2 34 collection law applies to former as well as current employees,
2 35 until the duties and obligations outlined in Code chapter 91A
3 1 are fulfilled.
