S.2504

Rhode Island S2504 mandates employers to inform warehouse distribution center employees of work quotas and potential consequences upon hire.

Rhode Island S2504, known as the Warehouse Worker Protection Act, requires employers to provide each employee at a warehouse distribution center with a written description of work quotas, including the number of tasks to be completed within a defined time period and any adverse employment actions for failing to meet the quota. Employers are not required to use quotas or monitor work speed data, and they are prohibited from imposing quotas that conflict with meal or rest periods, bathroom use, or occupational health and safety laws.
