California State and City Paid Sick Leave Laws

The law says employers subject to state and local Paid Sick Leave laws
​must follow the stricter standard or the law that is the most beneficial to the employee. 
​
On October 4, Governor Newsom signed S.B. 616 which significantly expands the State’s existing paid sick leave laws (codified at Sections 245.5, 246, and 246.5 of the Labor Code) by increasing the number of
​paid sick days that California employers must offer to employees as well as accrual options. 
These new requirements went into effect on January 1, 2024.
  • Increases the amount of paid sick leave employers are required to provide to employees from 3 days (24 hours) to 5 days (40 hours).  This increase would apply regardless of whether an employer opts to accrue or frontload paid sick time.
  • Defines “full amount of leave” as 5 days (40 hours).
  • Increases the current rolling accrual cap (or maximum accrual cap) from 6 days (48 hours) to 10 days (80 hours).
