Good afternoon,
We wanted to remind you that in New York State, COVID Paid Sick Leave is still in effect for employees who are ordered to quarantine or isolate due to COVID-19 and are unable to work while in quarantine or isolation. Depending on the size of the business, employers may be required to provide COVID Paid Sick Leave to employees without requiring employees to first use accrued paid time off.
All employees, regardless of the size of the business they work for, are entitled to job protection upon returning to work from COVID Sick Leave. Employees exercising these rights are protected under New York’s anti-retaliation laws.
To learn about what you can do if you were exposed, have symptoms, or test positive for COVID, please click here.
To find out more about your rights about COVID Sick Leave or to file a complaint, visit paidfamilyleave.ny.gov/COVID19.
