Colorado has no statewide predictive scheduling law but permits local governments to adopt fair workweek and advance notice scheduling ordinances for employers.
Unlike a handful of states, Colorado has not enacted statewide predictive scheduling rules requiring advance notice of shifts, predictability pay, or rest between shifts. State law does not preempt local scheduling regulations following the broader employment preemption rollback. Cities such as Denver have studied fair workweek ordinances targeting retail and food service employers. State labor protections under CRS 8-4-101 require timely wage payment, accurate paystubs, and posting of work schedules in compliance with wage rules. Employers should monitor local proposals.
Local fair workweek violations typically result in predictability pay owed to workers and civil penalties from $200 to $1,000 per affected employee.
