As we have previously reported, the Massachusetts sick leave law begins on July 1, 2015. It requires that all employers in Massachusetts – including household employers – provide 40 hours of sick leave to employees annually. Generally speaking, the new law will not likely affect household employers as far as paid sick leave goes. Employers with ten or fewer employees (including temporary and part-time workers) will be required to provide sick leave, but may provide it on an unpaid basis. Only employers with 11 or more employees must provide paid sick leave.

In anticipation of the law, the Attorney General for the state has posted the Earned Sick Time Notice of Employee Rights which must be posted by Massachusetts employers by July 1st. All employers in Massachusetts must display the poster in a conspicuous location. Additionally, employers must provide each worker with a copy of the notice.
