The City of Newark’s paid sick leave ordinance took effect
this past Saturday, June 21, 2014. As we
previously
posted on April 1, 2014, the City of Newark passed an ordinance mandating
certain employers to provide paid sick leave to their employees. Employers are required to notify employees of
their rights by providing individual written notice to employees and posting a
notice of rights in the workplace, although the City has not yet issued a model
notice.
For more information about the ordinance, refer to
Newark’s webpage
or contact Connell Foley’s labor and employment law attorneys.
