Summary
The Employee Fair Scheduling Act would force employers with 20 or more employees in retail, hotels, or food‑service to provide new hires a written estimate of monthly hours and on‑call expectations, and to post a written work schedule at least 14 days before it begins. It also creates rights for employees to request schedule changes, receive compensation for short‑notice changes, and be protected from retaliation. The goal is to give workers more predictability and bargaining power over their hours.
