Bill > HB2237

This bill repeals a series of Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) sections related to predictive work scheduling, effectively eliminating existing legal provisions that previously governed work scheduling practices. Specifically, the bill removes ORS sections 653.412 through 653.490, which were likely regulations that required employers to provide advance notice of work schedules, offer additional compensation for last-minute schedule changes, or provide certain scheduling protections for workers. The bill also makes a technical amendment to ORS 659A.885, which is a broader statute about civil actions for workplace violations, by removing references to the now-repealed predictive scheduling statutes. By repealing these laws, the bill eliminates the legal framework that previously mandated certain predictive work scheduling requirements, potentially giving employers more flexibility in how they create and modify work schedules. The practical effect is to remove what were likely considered burdensome scheduling regulations that may have been seen as challenging for businesses to implement.
