Reduces the standard workweek from 40 hours to 32 hours under the Fair Labor Standards Act.
The Thirty-Two Hour Workweek Act proposes to amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, reducing the standard workweek from 40 hours to 32 hours. It phases in this change over four years, starting with a 38-hour limit in the first year, then 36, 34, and finally 32 hours. The bill also adjusts overtime compensation rates and ensures no reduction in total workweek compensation or employee benefits due to these changes.
