FAQ

In Illinois an employer cannot work you more than 6 days straight without your consent or getting a waiver from the state to do so in some kind of emergency.

Sometimes, emergencies happen or there are extenuating circumstances in which an employer desperately needs employees to work more than 6 days in a row. In these cases, the employer must obtain a waiver from the Illinois Department of Labor (IDOL) granting permission to have employees work seven consecutive days.

Senate Bill 3146 changes this. It establishes that non-exempt employees in Illinois must have at least one day of rest in each successive seven-day time period, no matter where those days are on a calendar week.

Numerous studies have shown the negative impact of “right-to-work” laws on communities — playing out through lower wages, reduced health care coverage, and heightened rates of poverty that force many into a reliance on public assistance.

SB 3646 repeals the Illinois Child Labor Law and replaces it with the Child Labor Law of 2024. Among other changes, the new law specifies workplaces and industries in which minors cannot work and details hours and times of day that minors of different ages can work.

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.
