Article 33(1) of the Constitution states, "To enhance working conditions, workers shall have the right to independent association, collective bargaining and collective action." Towards better realization of these three basic labor rights for workers, the Labor Union Act was enacted.
To summarize, Illinois is not a right-to-work state. The state's legislative landscape reflects a commitment to collective bargaining, union rights, and labor relations characterized by negotiated agreements between employers and unions.
This means that employees cannot be scheduled for more than six (6) days in a row and employers are required to provide one 24-hour rest period within seven consecutive days. This rule applies to all full-time workers in Illinois, with just a few exceptions which we will discuss later in this article.
