AI Summary
This bill adds a new section to existing Idaho law to prohibit employers from penalizing employees for using earned or accrued sick leave.

The bill also clarifies that it does not create a new financial obligation for employers to pay out unused sick leave upon an employee's termination, resignation, retirement, or other separation from employment.
