AI Summary
This bill, known as the Just Scheduling Act, aims to regulate employee scheduling practices in Massachusetts. It requires employers to post work schedules at least 7 days in advance and notify employees of any changes as soon as possible. The bill also mandates that employers pay "predictability pay" to employees if shifts are changed or shortened on short notice. Additionally, the bill grants employees the right to request schedule changes and prohibits employers from requiring employees to work certain hours without consent. The bill gives the state Attorney General the authority to enforce these provisions and promulgate necessary rules and regulations.
