S 3550

The Schedules That Work Act aims to improve the stability and predictability of work schedules for millions of American workers, particularly those in low-wage jobs in industries like retail and food service. It requires employers to consider employee requests for schedule changes, provide more advance notice of work schedules, and offer predictability pay to employees who experience frequent schedule changes. The bill also seeks to address scheduling practices that disproportionately affect workers of color and create barriers to accessing childcare and other essential services. Ultimately, the goal is to create a fairer and more stable work environment for these employees.
