We Know Sick Time Pay Laws

Matern Law Group, PC is an employment law firm based in Orange County, CA.

Employers are required to provide paid sick leave to workers in California under the Healthy Workplace Healthy Family Act of 2014 (HWHFA).

California’s paid-sick-leave law includes the following basic requirements:

  • Covered employees include full-time, part-time, temporary or seasonal workers who work in California for 30 or more days in a 12-month period for the same employer.
  • Covered employees must accrue at least one hour of sick leave for every 30 hours worked. Alternative accrual methods are acceptable if they comply with the law.
  • An employer may limit the amount of paid sick leave an employee can use in one year to 24 hours or three days.
  • An employer must allow accrued unused paid sick leave to be carried over to the next year, but a cap on carryover hours of no less than 48 hours or six days is permitted. Lump sum policies are not required to allow carryover.
