Steve Sack to Discuss Proposed Worker Schedule Rules for Seattle Employers on “Fox & Friends”

Steven Mitchell Sack, “The Employee’s Lawyer,” will appear on “Fox & Friends” on Saturday, February 27 at 6:45 a.m. to discuss the new rules that are being proposed in Seattle on how companies establish their employees’ work schedules.

The Seattle City Council recently proposed a set of rules that shifts the power away from employers when it comes to how employees are not only paid but scheduled to work. Although it is still being drafted, the proposed ordinance would guarantee workers at least eleven hours of downtime between shifts, allow workers to receive their work schedule two weeks in advance or else be paid time-and-a-half if shifts are added inside that timeframe and require employers to pay employees for a few hours of work not performed if shifts are taken away.

This 11-hour downtime provision in the bill is to prevent the practice of “clopenings,” in which employees who stay late at night to close are also asked to open up the store the next day. The city also ratified raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour.

He is a well-informed, no-nonsense, straight-shooter who does what’s necessary to yield favorable results, which is exactly what he did for me. I protect my colleagues, which is why I’ve already been referring them to him too. With Steven on your side, you can’t go wrong. He just won’t let you.

    If you're looking for an employment attorney who is experienced, compassionate, and delivers results, I would wholeheartedly recommend Steven Sack.
    From my very first conversation with Steven, I knew I was in good hands. He took the time to truly listen to my situation, made me feel heard, and immediately gave me confidence that I had the right team on my side during one of the most difficult times in my life. One gesture that I’ll never forget was when he sent me a copy of his book with a thoughtful handwritten note. It wasn’t something he had to do, but it showed the kind of person he is and how much he genuinely cares about the people he represents. His guidance went far beyond legal advice. I can’t say enough about how grateful I am for Steven and the decades he has dedicated to advocating for his clients. It’s clear that this isn’t just a profession for him. He truly cares about helping people move forward. I feel incredibly fortunate to have been one of his clients, and it was an honor to work with him. I’m deeply grateful for everything he did for me and would recommend him without hesitation.
