Supplemental Sick Leave Update
presented by Jennifer Grock
On February 10, 2022, the Governor signed into law Senate Bill 114 (“SB 114”), requiring employers with 26 or more employees to provide up to 80 hours of COVID-19 supplemental paid sick leave (“SPSL”) to employees. SB 114 takes effect 10 days after its enactment, or February 20, 2022. Though the provisions of SB 114 are similar to the 2021 COVID-19 supplemental sick leave (SB 95) that expired on September 30, 2021, there are important differences in the new legislation.
The program will discuss what’s different; what’s new and what to watch out for when administering this new leave entitlement.
