Part-Time Worker Bill of Rights Act

Introduced·12/17/25

Part-Time Worker Bill of Rights Act extends family and medical leave benefits and ensures equitable treatment for part-time workers.

The Part-Time Worker Bill of Rights Act aims to extend protections to part-time workers in the areas of family and medical leave and to ensure equitable treatment in the workplace. It eliminates the hours of service requirement for Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) leave, allowing part-time workers to qualify for FMLA leave after 90 days of employment. The Act also prohibits discrimination against part-time workers based on the number of hours they are scheduled to work, ensuring equal treatment in terms of compensation, benefits, and other employment conditions.
