Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
 

Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, if an employee, hired as a result of a covered individual taking leave under the provisions of chapter 175M of the General Laws, is subsequently separated from that employment when the covered individual is restored to that position, and is eligible for unemployment insurance benefits under the provisions of chapter 151A of the General Laws, those benefit charges shall not accrue to the employer’s experience rating but rather shall be charged to the solvency fund.
