Provides that an individual that begins employment after the effective date of the amendatory Act with an entity not defined as an employer in the Article shall not be deemed an employee for the purposes of the Article. Provides that in the case of doubt as to whether any person is an employee, as defined in the Article, the decision of the Board of Trustees shall be final.
