Good news for Delaware’s volunteer fire companies

Good news! Chris just received this letter from the Treasury Department saying that Delaware’s volunteer fire companies will not have to count their volunteer firefighters as “employees” under the Affordable Care Act.

The key section: 

“The forthcoming final regulations generally will not require volunteer hours of bona fide volunteer firefighters and volunteer emergency medical personnel at governmental entitities or tax exempt organizations to be counted when determining an employer’s full-time employees or full-time equivalent employees.”
