HB2627

Arizona HB2627 protects workers' rights during public health emergencies by prohibiting discrimination and retaliation.

Arizona HB2627 amends the Arizona Revised Statutes to add a new article protecting workers' rights during public health emergencies. It prohibits employers from discriminating against or retaliating against workers who wear personal protective equipment, raise concerns about health or safety violations, or oppose unlawful practices. Employers include businesses, state agencies, and contractors. The bill allows workers to file complaints with the Arizona Department of Labor and seek legal action if administrative remedies are exhausted.
