Bill overview
This bill, the Thirty-Two Hour Workweek Act, proposes to reduce the standard workweek from 40 hours to 32 hours. It amends the Fair Labor Standards Act to establish overtime pay requirements for employees working more than 32 hours in a workweek, with escalating rates for longer workweeks over time. The bill also modifies certain references within the existing law to reflect the change in the standard workweek. It aims to provide greater work-life balance for employees.
