Rochester has enacted no local predictive or fair-workweek scheduling ordinance. New York State has no statewide predictive scheduling law. Only New York City has a Fair Workweek Law in New York State; Rochester employers follow state-level call-in pay rules only.
A review of the Rochester City Code (eCode360, Chapter 67: Labor) confirms no local ordinance requiring advance schedule notice, predictability pay, or other fair-workweek protections. New York State's proposed expanded predictive scheduling regulations (12 NYCRR Part 142, proposed 2018) were halted and never finalized. The only active state scheduling protection is call-in pay under 12 NYCRR Β§Β§ 142-2.3 and 142-3.3: employees who report to work must be paid for at least four hours (or the length of the scheduled shift, whichever is less) at the minimum wage. NYC's Fair Workweek Law (NYC Admin. Code Β§ 20-1201 et seq.) does not apply outside New York City.
No local fine. State call-in pay violations (12 NYCRR Β§ 142-2.3) are enforced by NY DOL; employees may recover unpaid wages plus liquidated damages equal to the underpayment.
