Bill > S05296

This bill amends the labor law to require that paid sick leave taken by an employee does not result in a reduction of other paid time off, such as vacation or personal days. Specifically, the bill defines "paid sick leave" as payment of full wages for an employee's absence due to illness, injury, medical condition, or need for medical care for themselves or certain family members. The bill prohibits employers from reducing paid time off for purposes other than sick leave when an employee uses their paid sick leave.
