HB 6933 - Predictable Scheduling for Employees

• Requires employers to provide work schedules to employees at least 21 days in advance and post schedules at worksites; new employees must receive schedules covering their first 21 days before employment begins (effective October 1, 2015).

• Employers must notify employees of schedule changes within 24 hours and prohibits requiring employees to work unscheduled shifts without written consent.

• Mandates "predictability pay" compensation when employers change shifts with less notice: one hour of pay for changes made 21-24 hours before the shift, or four hours of pay for changes made less than 24 hours before the shift.

• Prohibits employers from requiring employees to work consecutive shifts with fewer than 11 hours between them unless compensated at one and one-half times the regular rate.

• Establishes enforcement mechanisms through the Labor Commissioner with penalties including three times unpaid wages, attorney's fees, and requires employers to maintain detailed scheduling records for three years.
