________________________________
On Friday, March 19, 2021, Governor Gavin Newsom signed Senate Bill (SB) 95, which creates uniform, statewide policy to ensure employees have access to COVID-19 supplemental paid sick leave through September 30, 2021. You may recall that the federal stimulus bill enacted in December 2020 did not provide an extension of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA), thus Emergency Paid Sick Leave and the Emergency Family and Medical Leave Expansion Act expired December 31, 2020. Absent federal or state law requiring local educational agencies (LEAs) to provide FFCRA leave, many have relied on local ordinances or accrued leave, unpaid leave, and other statutory leave entitlements to manage employee absences for COVID-19-related reasons.
SB 95 reinstates COVID-19 leave as a provision of state law and expands it to all public and private entities, including LEAs. SB 95 is retroactive to sick leave taken beginning January 1, 2021, and employers with 25 or fewer workers are exempt from this leave provision.
SB 114 reinstates COVID-19 leave as a provision of state law and expands it to all public and private entities, including LEAs. SB 114 is retroactive to sick leave taken beginning January 1, 2022, and employers with 25 or fewer workers are exempt from this leave provision.
