SCHEDULING RIGHTS

Does this sound familiar?

You don’t need to know the legal answer. Start with what happened at work.

01

Late schedule changes

Your employer changed, added, or canceled a shift on short notice.

02

Unpredictable hours

You were put on call, lost scheduled hours, or were denied available shifts.

03

Pressure to stay quiet

You faced consequences after asking about your scheduling rights.

NYC’s Fair Workweek rules differ for fast food and retail workers. The type of employer, notice given, and change to the schedule all matter. A case review can help identify which protections apply.
