The "Warehouse Worker Protection Act" introduces new regulations to enhance the safety and rights of employees in warehouse distribution centers in Florida. It establishes sections 448.27 through 448.35 within the Florida Statutes, which define key terms and require employers with more than 25 employees to form safety committees. Employers are mandated to provide written descriptions of quotas to employees, notify them of any changes, and ensure that these quotas do not compromise their rights to breaks and safe working conditions. Additionally, the bill requires employers to maintain accurate records of work speed data and quota requirements, which must be accessible to the Department of Commerce upon request.

The bill also prohibits adverse personnel actions against employees exercising their rights under the act and allows the Secretary of the Department of Commerce to enforce compliance through citations. It mandates that employers keep records of employee quotas and work speed data for at least three years post-employment, with provisions for current and former employees to request this information at no cost. The act establishes a rebuttable presumption of retaliation for adverse actions taken within 90 days of an employee's request for information. Enforcement mechanisms are included, allowing employees to take legal action against employers for violations, with courts authorized to award damages and impose penalties. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
