Promoting Full-Time Work and Access to Hours:
- If an employer has additional hours of work to offer in the job position, the employer shall offer those hours of work first to existing qualified employees before hiring additional part-time employees or before securing additional employees through the services of a temporary services agency, staffing agency or any similar contractor.
Encouraging Fair, Predictable Schedules
- Employers must post schedules at least two weeks in advance. Workers will receive one hour of pay at their regular rate of pay for schedule changes made with less than a week's notice and two to four hours of pay for schedule changes made with less than 24 hours' notice.
Discouraging Abusive On-Call Scheduling Practices
- Employers must provide two to four hours of pay to an employee at his/her regular rate of pay when she/he is required to be "on-call" for a specified shift but the employer cancels the shift with less than 24 hours' notice
Equal Treatment for Part-Time Workers
- Prohibits employers from discriminating against an employee with respect to their rate of pay, access to employer-provided paid and unpaid time off, or access to promotion opportunities.
Encouraging Worker Retention and Job Security
- Protect workers against losing their jobs when their company is brought or sold by requiring that if formula retail businesses are acquired, the workers must be kept on at their jobs for at least a 90-day trial period.

These rights have a better security to everyone that do put their trust in the workplace. In our society now, we just hope that the workplace would have our best interest just because of the fact that they are humans just as we are. Many Americans are laid off of the workplace just because of some of the laws that are listed above to prevent them with a standing job. As someone who use to work, my hours that I need to have a pay check would be handed to someone else that they just hired. Which is unfair because as someone who has been at the workplace for a standing amount of time extra hours or just hours in general should have been asked to me if I would be able to fulfill what they needed.

These rights have gave many people a sense of relief, and they are fair standing laws to each and everyone that works. America right isn't in good state right now with jobs, it's either they get laid off or they don't get enough hours or their benefits from the job they serve is unavailable for them. It's hard for anyone to get a job already and now the changes that San Francisco has put out is honestly a fair ball game for anyone. Not only does it show the humanity for others but it does draw a line from work and personal.
