Bill Summary

Altering the circumstances under which an employer is authorized to require an employee who uses certain sick and safe leave to provide verification that the leave was used appropriately; and authorizing certain employers to deny a certain request to take certain sick and safe leave under certain circumstances.

AI Summary

This bill alters the circumstances under which an employer can require an employee who uses sick and safe leave to provide verification that the leave was used appropriately. Employers can now require verification if the leave was used for more than two consecutive scheduled shifts or if the employee used the leave during the first 107-120 days of employment and the employer provided written notice about the verification requirement when the employee was hired. The bill also authorizes employers to deny a request for sick and safe leave if the employee fails or refuses to provide the required verification.
