CA SB1115

Permits individual nonexempt employees at employers with 10 or fewer employees to request written approval for flexible work schedules of up to 10 hours per day within a 40-hour workweek without triggering overtime pay obligations.

Requires employers to pay overtime at 1.5 times regular rate for hours exceeding 40 per week or 10 per day (whichever is greater), and double pay for hours over 12 per day or over 8 hours on the fifth, sixth, or seventh day of the workweek.

Prohibits employers from inducing flexible schedule requests through promises of employment benefits or threats of employment detriment.

Allows either employee or employer to discontinue the flexible schedule with written notice, effective the first day of the next pay period or the fifth day after notice, unless otherwise agreed.

Excludes employees covered by collective bargaining agreements and public sector employees from this provision.
