Requires employers of retail, food service or cleaning employees to give such employees 7 days' notice of their work schedule and a month's notice of the minimum hours of work; provides a private right of action to employees who are aggrieved by certain violations of such provisions.

New York Assembly Bill A00392, introduced in January 2025, aimed to require employers in the retail, food service, and cleaning sectors to provide employees with at least seven days' notice of their work schedules and a month's notice of their minimum hours of work. The bill also proposed granting employees the right to take legal action if these provisions were violated. However, the bill did not progress beyond the committee stage and was referred to the Assembly Labor Committee in January 2026.

Positive media analysis is being generated.

Although direct media critiques of Bill A00392 are not found, opponents of comparable bills often express concerns about the potential administrative burden on employers, especially small businesses. They argue that rigid scheduling requirements could reduce operational flexibility, potentially leading to increased costs and challenges in adapting to fluctuating business demands.
