sick leave benefits in San Francisco
This is the first-ever law of such that San Francisco has just passed and it affects me because my employers are headquartered in San Francisco. San Francisco...taking that progressive leap once again. Sweet deal.
This new law takes effect within San Francisco on Monday, February 5. It requires employers to provide PAID sick leave to all their employees.
Starts February 5 for current employees.
1 hour paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked.
Capped at 72 hours of unused leave; 40 hours for small business.
Unused paid sick leave carries over year to year, subject to the cap.
No payment for unused sick leave at termination of employment.
that means no more "use it or lose it" sick leave and 3 more days than my employer prevously offered.
