Show Notes
Connecticut lawmakers are considering a bill to regulate self-checkout lanes in grocery stores. Senate Bill four hundred thirty-eight proposes one staffed checkout for every two self-checkout machines, one employee to monitor every two machines, and a cap of eight self-checkout stations per store. The measure is set to be discussed by the Labor and Public Employees Committee on Tuesday. Retailers and business groups oppose the bill, arguing it would increase labor costs and reduce flexibility. Labor unions support the proposal, citing job protection and improved customer service. If approved, the rules would take effect on October first.
