Oklahoma preempts local predictive scheduling and fair workweek ordinances, keeping shift and scheduling regulation uniform under state employment law in Title 40.
The Oklahoma legislature has barred political subdivisions from regulating employee work schedules, including advance notice requirements, predictability pay, or restrictions on on-call shifts. The preemption sits alongside the state's broader employment preemption in 40 O.S. 160. Employers must still comply with federal Fair Labor Standards Act overtime rules, and union contracts may set additional terms. Industries such as healthcare and transportation follow specific federal and state safety regulations on hours of service.
A municipal ordinance imposing predictive scheduling pay or advance schedule requirements is preempted and unenforceable against private employers.
