2021 COVID-19 SUPPLEMENTAL PAID SICK LEAVE
2021 COVID-19 SUPPLEMENTAL PAID SICK LEAVE (SB 95)
Your union UFCW fought hard and won COVID-19 Supplemental Paid Sick Leave for California’s workers. For the past year, we know our members have ensured Californians were fed and healthy throughout the pandemic by staying on the job, but were continuously subject to COVID-19 infection, using up what little paid sick leave they had. With SB 95, California’s workers are now entitled to COVID-19 Supplemental Paid Sick Leave so you, and your family can stay safe and healthy.
- Workers are now entitled to two weeks of COVID-19 Supplemental Paid Sick Leave until September 30, 2021.
- Even if you have used other forms of leave this year, you may be eligible for retroactive payments.
- You can use this leave to:
- Care for yourself
- Care for a family member, or
- Vaccine-related needs
