Only if the worker has a valid MA or other US driver's license or possibly an international dl. In most cases the states will not accept international dl but want the person to get a state dl. The visa gives this person no privilege to operate a motor vehicle in the US.

I hope that I have helped you, answered all of your questions,
and that I have provided you with useful information.
Please ask more questions if I have not answered all of your
questions.

In the future, if you would like to specifically ask me a question,
you can ask for me in the body of the question.

responsible for your legal rights is if you have signed
a written retainer agreement with my law firm.

The worker has a Bulgarian license and can drive acording to the MA RMV but is does make it clear if he can drive company vehiles.

The J1 visa is a work and travel visa good for four months.

See below. Thank you for your help but does this help?
DRIVING IN MASSACHUSETTS

Fact: The “international License” is not recognized in the state of Massachusetts

Fact: All people moving to Massachusetts have 30 days in which to obtain a Massachusetts Driver’s License.

All information regarding Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles can be found at www.state.ma.us/rmv

For those people who will be here temporarily (up to six months), a list of those countries that have reciprocal privileges is below. This means if you come from a country on this list, and have a valid driver’s license from that country, you do not need a Massachusetts Driver’s License. If your country is not on the list and you are here temporarily, you do need a Massachusetts Driver’s License.
