FAQ

The Illinois law that applies is called the “One Day Rest in Seven Act” (or, “ODRISA”). In addition to requiring one day off for every consecutive seven-day period, the Act also requires a minimum 20-minute meal break if you work at least 7.5 hours a day (which has to be given within the first 5 hours of the shift).

That report concluded that wages were 3% to 9% lower in right-to-work states. There were two critical flaws in the report's calculations: it failed to account for state-level differences that would impact average wages and improperly calculated “standard errors.”

"Seven Day Permit" - a temporary registration permit as provided in IVC Section 3-403 issued to an Illinois resident for operation of a non-registered vehicle within the State of Illinois for up to 7 days.

The One Day Rest in Seven Act (ODRISA) gives workers the right to a day of rest every workweek and breaks for meals or rest during daily work shifts.

In Illinois an employer cannot work you more than 6 days straight without your consent or getting a waiver from the state to do so in some kind of emergency.

Rule 50 defines bodily harm as: Any injury, damage, or impairment to an individual's physical condition, or - such as a bruise, cut, scrap or burn Making physical contact of an insulting or provoking nature with an individual. The physical contact does not need to leave a mark.

In a 2022 referendum, voters in Illinois approved a state constitutional amendment establishing a right to collective bargaining. The amendment also prevents any future state legislature or local government from passing a right-to-work law.
