HB 631

AN ACT relating to employment schedules.

In Plain Language

This bill requires employers to give workers their weekly schedules at least a week in advance and let workers say when they're available to work. Employers must pay workers if they change a schedule after posting it, and workers get rest periods between scheduled shifts. Employers who break these rules face penalties.

Official summary

Create new sections of KRS Chapter 337 requiring employers to give employees a good-faith schedule of hours to be worked, to have a voluntary standby list of employees who wish to work additional hours, to post weekly schedules at least seven days in advance, and to provide certain rest periods for employees from being scheduled; allow employees to identify time limitations for scheduling work hours; require compensation for employer changes to the schedule; set forth unlawful practices; amend KRS 337.990 to establish a penalty for violations.
