AI Summary

This bill relates to flexible working arrangements. It allows employees to submit a request for flexible working arrangements, such as changes in the number of days or hours worked, work from home, or job-sharing. The employer must consider the request and notify the employee of the decision within 45 days. The employer can deny the request if it is inconsistent with the employer's business operations, based on factors like additional costs, impact on customer demand, or inability to reorganize work. The bill prohibits employers from retaliating against employees for exercising their rights under this law and allows the labor commissioner to take enforcement action.
