Illinois has no statewide predictive scheduling law, and Cook County has not adopted one. Only the City of Chicago has a Fair Workweek ordinance covering its workers within city limits.
Predictive scheduling laws require employers to post schedules in advance and pay premiums for last-minute changes. Illinois has no statewide rule. Chicago adopted the Fair Workweek Ordinance in 2019 (effective 2020), covering employers in seven industries with 100-plus employees and requiring 14 days' advance notice plus predictability pay. That ordinance applies only inside Chicago city limits. Suburban Cook County workers, including those in Evanston, Oak Park, Cicero, and Schaumburg, have no equivalent local protection. Cook County government has not introduced a county-level Fair Workweek ordinance. Workers default to federal Fair Labor Standards Act overtime rules and any voluntary employer policy.
No local violations exist outside Chicago. Suburban workers cannot file scheduling-premium complaints; only standard FLSA wage-and-hour rules apply, enforced by USDOL Wage and Hour Division.
