Santa Clara County has no predictive-scheduling ordinance. California AB-1228 governs fast-food workers via the statewide Fast Food Council. Outside fast food, no local or state predictable-schedule mandate applies in SCC unincorporated areas or its 15 cities.
Santa Clara County has not enacted a fair workweek or predictive-scheduling rule for unincorporated areas, and none of its 15 cities (San Jose, Sunnyvale, Mountain View, Palo Alto, Cupertino, Santa Clara, etc.) has adopted one either. California AB-1228 (2023) created the Fast Food Council with statewide authority over wages and conditions in covered fast-food chains, preempting local fast-food scheduling rules. Outside fast food, California has no statewide predictive-scheduling statute, so retail, hospitality, and tech-services employers in SCC follow default Labor Code rules: reporting-time pay under IWC Wage Order 7, split-shift premiums, and meal-period rules under Labor Code §512.
No county scheduling penalties exist. Fast-food workers may file Fast Food Council complaints. Retail workers may pursue Labor Commissioner claims for reporting-time-pay violations under Wage Order 7 with statutory penalties up to $100 per first violation, $250 thereafter.
