No. 1399-A Protecting employees who seek temporary changes to work schedules for personal events and certain other schedule changes. Introduction The bill would require an employer to allow employees to take two temporary schedule changes per calendar year—including paid time off, remote work, changing work hours and unpaid leave—relating to a caregiving emergency, a legal proceeding or hearing for subsistence benefits, or any circumstance that would constitute a basis for permissible use of safe time or sick time under chapter 8 of title 20 of the administration code. The bill would also establish a written process for employees and employers to communicate regarding requests for such changes. This bill would also protect employees from employers retaliating against them for making schedule change requests, because section 20-1204’s prohibition on retaliation would apply. This bill would not affect leave granted under the city’s earned sick and safe time act or apply to employees under certain collective bargaining agreements or to certain employees in the entertainment industry.
