AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 19 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO WAREHOUSE WORKER PROTECTIONS.

Adverse action may not be taken against an employee by an employer for failure to meet a quota that does not allow for meal and rest periods. The Act permits an employee to request a written description when they believe a quota prohibited them from receiving appropriate meal or rest periods. Any discriminatory or retaliatory action taken against an employee within 90 days of the employee making a written request or complaint creates a rebuttable presumption of retaliation by the employer. The Act establishes the Secretary of Labor’s authority to enforce and pass regulations to effectuate this Act, including remedies and relief available to the Department of Labor.
