Abstract
- The article discusses a growing momentum for the passage of sick leave provisions as unions and worker groups in 20 jurisdictions including Massachusetts and Illinois are actively campaign for it. Employer groups led by National Restaurant Association and other employers in the hospitality industry are resisting paid sick leave which emerged as a compelling issue for low-paid workers. It notes that there is no national law on sick pay and 40 million work in jobs with no paid sick days at all.
