The New York City Council has introduced six bills as part of a legislative package intended to reform scheduling and workplace practices for fast-food and retail workers in New York City.
The legislation, introduced on Dec. 6, follows Mayor Bill de Blasio’s September announcement that his administration plans to implement greater protections for approximately 65,000 hourly fast food workers in the city.

Intro 1387, sponsored by Council Member Corey Johnson (D-Manhattan), would ban the practice of “on-call scheduling” for retail employees.
