What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, an employer that owns a factory or mercantile

establishment, subject to certain exceptions, must allow every person employed in

the establishment to take at least 24 consecutive hours of rest in every seven

consecutive days (one day of rest in seven). This bill permits an employee to

voluntarily choose to work without one day of rest in seven.
