How do you know if you are eligible for paid sick leave?

There are a few key factors that determine whether or not you are eligible for paid sick leave. First, you must work in the city of Los Angeles. If you do not live and work in the city of Los Angeles, you are not covered by the ordinance. Second, you must work for an employer that has 26 or more employees. If your employer has 25 or fewer employees, you are not covered by the ordinance. Third, you must have worked for your employer for at least 90 days. And finally, you must use paid sick leave for a qualifying reason. Qualifying reasons include:

· Your own illness or injury

· To care for a sick family member

· To attend a doctor’s appointment

· To recover from domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking

If you do not meet all of these criteria, you are not eligible for paid sick leave under the Los Angeles ordinance.

What if my employer doesn’t offer paid sick leave?

If your employer does not offer paid sick leave, you can still file a claim with the city. The city will investigate your claim and, if they find that your employer is violating the ordinance, they will order your employer to provide you with paid sick leave retroactively. You can call a Los Angeles paid sick leave lawyer as well.

I’m not sure how many days of paid sick leave I have. How can I find out?

Your employer is required to keep records of the hours you work and the paid sick leave you accrue. You can request these records from your employer at any time. You can call the Los Angeles employment law firm Rise Law Firm to know more information. If your employer does not provide you with these records, you can file a complaint with the city.
