Indiana preempts local predictive or fair scheduling ordinances, barring cities from requiring private employers to provide advance schedule notice or premium pay.
IC 22-2-2-10.5 preempts political subdivisions from regulating employee scheduling, advance notice of hours, or premium pay for schedule changes. As a result, Indiana cities cannot adopt fair workweek or predictive scheduling laws like those in some other states. Indiana relies on at-will employment principles under common law, with limited exceptions for collective bargaining agreements and federal labor law. Employers must still comply with FLSA recordkeeping and overtime rules, and state wage payment statutes in IC 22-2-9 govern timing of final paychecks.
Any local predictive scheduling ordinance is unenforceable, and affected employers may bring preemption challenges; no state-imposed scheduling penalties exist.
