Alabama Jobs Act; Secretary of Commerce prohibited from awarding economic tax incentives to companies that do not practice certain employment protections for workers

Summary

The bill requires any company that wants an Alabama Jobs Act tax incentive to certify that it follows a list of worker‑friendly rules, such as no mandatory overtime, no rotating shifts, no required weekend work, and at least 40 hours of paid emergency leave per year. Companies that cannot meet these conditions would be ineligible for the incentive. It aims to link state economic benefits to better employment practices.
