PAID Sick Leave Requirements in Mountain View:
Mountain View doesn’t have any city-based paid sick leave ordinances, so that means it defaults to California’s state paid sick leave laws.
California passed the Healthy Workplaces, Healthy Families Act in 2015, which mandates paid sick leave for employees who work in California for 30 or more days within a year from the beginning of employment. And the law applies to all employers regardless of size.
- Every employee is entitled to 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked
- Paid sick leave must carry over from year to year
- Employers can place a cap on accrual of 48 hours
- Employers can limit an employee’s use of sick leave to 24 hours per year
- Employers can also require employees to take sick leave in at least two-hour increments, but not more
