The Fair Scheduling Act refers to proposed legislation aimed at protecting workers from unpredictable work schedules—especially in retail, hospitality, and service industries.
These laws typically require employers to:
- Provide advance notice of schedules
- Pay workers extra if shifts are changed last minute
- Avoid “clopening” shifts (closing late then opening early)
As of now, Michigan has not passed a statewide Fair Scheduling Act. However, the issue remains part of ongoing labor policy discussions nationwide as workers push for more predictable schedules.
Because scheduling abuses can sometimes intersect with wage violations or retaliation, workers experiencing these issues should speak with an employment attorney.
