SB548

Pennsylvania SB548 establishes fair workweek employment standards for large retail, hospitality, and food services employers.

Pennsylvania SB548 mandates that large retail, hospitality, and food services employers provide employees with advance notice of work schedules, offer shifts to existing employees before hiring new ones, and compensate employees for schedule changes. The bill defines "covered employer" as businesses with 250+ employees and 20+ locations globally. Employers must provide a written work schedule estimate upon hiring, offer shifts to existing employees for 72 hours before hiring new ones, and pay predictability pay for schedule changes.
