Unstable and unpredictable work hours = unstable and unpredictable incomes. Working people deserve a #FairWorkweek to stay healthy! The #SchedulesThatWork Act will improve workplace scheduling practices so that working families can plan their lives.

New research from @Shift_UCB shows that some retail & food service workers have worse jobs than others. Workers of color experience up to 30% more instability in work hours compared to white workers. The gaps are the worst for women of color.#FairWorkweek

Unstable work hours are linked to high stress levels and poor mental health outcomes. A #FairWorkweek and #HealthyHours can change lives - more time with kids and more time for family caregiving responsibilities means healthier lives.

New @federalreserve data shows that most service industry workers get 3 days or less notice about schedule changes.

Over 1/3 of them only get 1 days notice.

How can you plan your life around that? It’s time for a #FairWorkweek and #HealthyHours!
