COVID-19 / Supplemental Paid Sick Leave

COVID-19 SUPPLEMENTAL PAID SICK LEAVE - FOOD SECTOR WORKERS

Yesterday, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-51-20 that provides supplemental paid sick leave benefits to certain food supply chain workers. The order covers growers and wineries with 500 or more employees.

The purpose of the order is to cover those workers who did not receive federal relief, as federal relief was limited to those working for companies with less than 500 employees.

Fisher Phillips, LLP has put together a Legal Alert to explain the basic provisions of the Executive Order.
