This ordinance establishes a fair workweek to ensure predictable and stable work schedules. It requires covered employers to provide at least 14 days' notice of work schedules, compensates employees for schedule changes and subtracted hours, mandates adequate rest between shifts, and protects employees' right to have input into their schedules. This ordinance also mandates that additional hours be offered to existing workers before new hiring, protects against retaliation, and creates enforcement mechanisms to ensure compliance.
