Here at #FairWorkweek hearing with sponsors starting us off strong - @SerenaForCO explains that single parents & working parents are left with a CPS call when they don't have predictable work schedules to pick their kids up

Unstable schedules impact 400k Coloradans #copolitics
@SerenaForCO reminds us corporate lobbyists are out numbering us.

@EmilyForCO "We are here today to address unpredictable hours... which means unpredictable pay... 1/3rd of workers in Colorado who are in the most impacted sectors - couldn't cover an emergency" #copolitics
"we continue to create communities where workers can thrive... studies show that fair scheduling builds trust for employees and employers" #copolitics

Big news: today, sociologists @KristenHarknett and @dannyjschneider released new analyses drawing from surveys with 30,000 retail and food workers at 120 of the largest retail and food service companies in the United States to show who suffers from bad schedules, and how. 1/16
Bad schedules, sometimes referred to as “just-in-time" or "JIT" schedules are common for low-wage workers: Nearly 3 in 4 workers experience last-minute shift changes, 2/3 have less than 2 weeks’ notice, and many face clopening and on-call shifts. 2/16
Employers often talk about these practices as being “flexible,” which implies that schedules bend to the needs of workers. In reality, workers have little control over their schedules. 3/16
