Bill > S08219

This bill amends the labor law to require employers to provide paid vacation time to eligible employees based on their length of employment. Specifically, it mandates that after one year of employment, employees must be offered up to two weeks of paid vacation; after three years, up to three weeks; and after five years, up to four weeks. Employees working an average of 20 hours per week or more are eligible. The bill also outlines provisions around granting vacation requests, allowing employees to forgo vacation time for double pay, and prohibiting employers from penalizing or intimidating employees for exercising their vacation rights.
