Also known as the Healthy Workplaces, Healthy Families Act of 2014, the new law requires all employers – including household employers – to provide paid sick leave in California to all employees beginning on July 1, 2015.
The law provides that an employee who works in California for 30 or more days in a year, beginning July 1, 2015, is entitled to accrue one hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked. That works out to a minimum of 3 paid sick days (or 24 hours of paid sick time) in each year of employment. Employees are eligible to use accrued sick days beginning on the 90th day of employment.
GTM has made available a helpful guide to this new law, which is a great reference tool for both families and nanny agencies in California.
