Florida Statute 509.032(7) and broader employment preemption framework prevent local governments from requiring private employers to follow predictive or fair-scheduling rules beyond state and federal law.
Florida Statute 509.032(7) preempts the regulation of public food service establishments and public lodging establishments to the state, and the Legislature has more broadly preempted local employment regulation through statutes including Section 218.077. As a result, no Florida county or city can impose predictive-scheduling, advance-notice, or fair-workweek mandates on private employers. State law sets no general predictive-scheduling requirement, leaving scheduling practices to employer discretion subject to federal Fair Labor Standards Act overtime rules. Cities may regulate their own direct employees but cannot extend scheduling rules to private workplaces.
Local fair-workweek or predictive-scheduling ordinances applied to private employers are preempted and unenforceable.
