Please note that it does NOT exempt all businesses with less than 50 emoloyees.  There is a significant "if":

"An employer that employs less than 50 employees shall not be subject to the requirements of this subsection, if such requirements would impose an undue hardship by causing the employer significant difficulty or expense when considered in relation to the size, financial resources, nature, or structure of the employer’s business".
 
To me this implies that a business with less than 50 employees would have to at least assess their situation and be able to show that they meet the "ifs".
It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
