Bill > HB1388

This bill establishes a new chapter in the Indiana Code that requires certain employers to provide paid sick leave to their employees. The key provisions are: - Employees accrue one hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked, up to 40 hours per year. - Employees can use the paid sick leave for their own illness or injury, to care for a family member, or to address domestic/family violence or public health emergencies. - The Commissioner of Labor is responsible for enforcing the paid sick leave law and adopting rules to implement it. - The law prohibits employers from interfering with or retaliating against employees for using their paid sick leave. - Employers are not required to pay out unused accrued sick leave upon an employee's separation, but must reinstate previously accrued sick leave if an employee is rehired within one year. The bill also amends the definition of "domestic or family violence" to include stalking and sex offenses for the purposes of the paid sick leave law and other existing laws.
