Workers' Rights Act

Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill would change North Carolina employment law by abolishing the at-will employment doctrine, meaning employees could only be fired for just cause. It would also require employers to provide paid meal and rest breaks, eliminate the subminimum wage for tipped employees, and protect employees who discuss their wages. Additionally, the bill would repeal the ban on public employee collective bargaining and create an Ombud's Office to help state employees resolve workplace issues. It also adds protections for contract employees working for the state, preventing mistreatment and retaliation.
