Effective August 1st, 2025, the provisions of New York State’s COVID-19 Paid Sick Leave Law, originally established to provide job-protected, paid time off for employees under a mandatory or precautionary order of quarantine or isolation will no longer be in effect.
What This Means for You:
- Employees will no longer be eligible for additional paid leave under the COVID-19 law for quarantine or isolation purposes.
- Any illness-related absences, including those due to COVID-19, will be managed under our standard sick leave, PTO, or other applicable leave policies.
