Also relevant to:W-2 worker (non-union)

Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill would prohibit hospitals and long-term care facilities from requiring nurses to work mandatory overtime, with exceptions for emergencies or ongoing procedures. If passed, employers would need to make a good faith effort to find voluntary help before mandating overtime and would have to report any instances of mandatory overtime to the state. Nurses who work overtime would also be guaranteed at least 10 consecutive hours off duty afterward.
