Bill Summary

Relative to sick time benefits for certain employees of the Commonwealth. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill aims to reform the sick time benefits for certain employees of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It sets a cap of 1,000 hours on the amount of unused sick leave credits that an employee can accrue. For employees who have already accrued more than 1,000 hours, the bill allows them to maintain their current balance but prevents them from accruing additional credits beyond that limit, except for any sick time used after the effective date of the bill. The bill also requires the Personnel Administrator to update the rules under Chapter 7, Section 28 of the General Laws to incorporate these changes.
