Bill > HB06406

This bill amends existing Connecticut statutes to require municipalities to provide paid sick leave to employees who currently do not receive at least 40 hours of paid leave. The legislation ensures that municipal workers will be eligible for paid sick time, while also preserving existing protections and flexibilities. Specifically, the bill does not override existing collective bargaining agreements or current employer policies related to how paid sick leave can be used or when a doctor's note might be required. By extending paid sick leave provisions to municipal employees, the bill aims to provide consistent workplace benefits across different types of public sector employers, potentially improving worker wellness and job security for municipal staff who previously lacked comprehensive paid sick leave options.
