Lets workers take employers to court for disputes, ending forced arbitration agreements.
This bill would let millions of workers take employers to court for work disputes, ending agreements that force them into private arbitration. It would ban employers from requiring workers to give up their right to sue or join group lawsuits before a problem even happens. Workers would also be protected from retaliation if they refuse to agree to arbitration.
Today, many workers are forced to sign agreements that prevent them from taking their employer to court or joining group lawsuits for workplace disputes. This bill would change that by banning these forced agreements before a dispute arises. It would also set strict rules for any voluntary arbitration agreements made after a dispute, including a 45-day waiting period, and protect workers from retaliation if they refuse to arbitrate.
