Working Families Flexibility Act

May. 2, 2017 | H.R. 1180
This bill would allow employers to substitute comp time for overtime pay, reducing the take home pay of millions of workers and resulting in longer hours and more unpredictable schedules. Contrary to the bill’s title, employers would remain in charge of when workers could take their comp time. The bill would encourage employers to demand excessive hours and would create a cost advantage for businesses that would no longer pay cash overtime. The bill passed the House amended.
