“Just Hours” Bill Introduced Today in DC Council

Today, “our elected officials on the DC City Council can take a huge step toward turning retail and fast food jobs into good jobs,” reports DC Jobs with Justice. “Urge them to support Just Hours legislation that will create pathways to full-time hours with stable schedules!” The Hours and Scheduling Stability Act, which will be introduced today, would “make an enormous difference to those who work in retail and food service,” JWJ says, by ensuring access to available hours for current employees, requiring schedules be posted three weeks in advance, and holding employers accountable for abusive on-call shifts and late schedule changes. Find out more here.
