As of July 1, 2015, California’s new sick leave law is in effect. At this time, Humboldt County employers need a written policy that specifically caps sick leave, or they will be subject to the required statutory accrual rate of one hour of sick pay for every 30 hours worked.
If you are a Humboldt County employer and do not know whether your current sick leave policies comply with the new sick leave laws, please seek guidance from an experienced employment law attorney today.
