Flexible scheduling&#8217;s positive aspects for the workplace include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-brightmine-list-item-spacing-small\">\n<li class=\"\">Promoting work-life balance;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Reducing stress;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Promoting improved planning; and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Offering an affordable and reasonable accommodation to ensure compliance under disabilities laws.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While workplace flexibility initiatives continue to be a strategic option for many employers, some jurisdictions have passed laws protecting an employee&#8217;s right to request flexible working options without fear of retaliation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, certain jurisdictions have gone further than right-to-request flexible arrangements laws by introducing more taxing requirements. These scheduling laws, alternately referred to as predictive, secure, fair or predictable, impose an increased number of requirements on employers in addition to extending retaliation protections to employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our 50 state chart summarizes information regarding state and municipal scheduling laws. Where applicable, the chart links to the Employment Law Guide for further details, as well as the Employee Handbooks and Policies and Procedures tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"aspect-ratio:16\/9;min-height:unset;\" class=\"wp-block-cover is-light has-aspect-ratio\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1270\" height=\"730\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-19934 size-full\" alt=\"Screenshot of Brightmine Fifty State Chart: Scheduling laws by state\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.brightmine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/09\/23045013\/scheduling-laws-brightmine-fifty-state-chart.webp\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.brightmine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/09\/23045013\/scheduling-laws-brightmine-fifty-state-chart.webp 1270w, https:\/\/cdn.brightmine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/09\/23045013\/scheduling-laws-brightmine-fifty-state-chart-300x172.webp 300w, https:\/\/cdn.brightmine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/09\/23045013\/scheduling-laws-brightmine-fifty-state-chart-1024x589.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.brightmine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/09\/23045013\/scheduling-laws-brightmine-fifty-state-chart-768x441.webp 768w, https:\/\/cdn.brightmine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/09\/23045013\/scheduling-laws-brightmine-fifty-state-chart-450x259.webp 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1270px) 100vw, 1270px\" \/><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-40 has-background-dim\" style=\"background-color:#FFF\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-cover-is-layout-4f0f4be3 wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-primary-white-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-f1e3dc65 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:25px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);box-shadow:var(--wp--preset--shadow--natural)\">\n<h3 id=\"h-want-to-see-more\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:clamp(16.834px, 1.052rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 0.881), 26px);font-style:normal;font-weight:500\">Want to see more?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-bm-inline-sentence is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-1ffe0ea6 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For full access to our 50 State Chart: <\/p>\n\n\n<h2 style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:600;margin-right:0;margin-left:0\" class=\"wp-block-post-title\">Scheduling laws by state and municipality<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">, sign up for an HR and Compliance Center subscription today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"\/us\/quote\/?intcmp=hrcc-migrated-resource|50SC|quote|request-a-quote\" style=\"border-radius:25px\">Request a quote<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column lnrs-hide-block-on-mobile is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-left-color:var(--wp--preset--color--secondary-gray);border-left-width:2px;padding-left:10px;flex-basis:30%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained wp-container-2 is-position-sticky\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-secondary-gray-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-1b31d3a2 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:1rem;padding-top:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-bottom:15px;padding-left:15px\">\n<h3 id=\"h-latest-updates\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Latest updates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Updated to reflect the Everett, Washington, scheduling ordinance, and the Los Angeles County, California, Fair Workweek Ordinance, effective July 1, 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-bleach-white-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-22a7c014 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:14px;padding-top:10px;padding-right:15px;padding-bottom:15px;padding-left:15px\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get ahead of HR compliance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Navigating today\u2019s complex HR compliance landscape is challenging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Get ahead with Brightmine.
