Illinois Moves Forward with Paid Leave Mandate
- Increase the administrative burden on small businesses by requiring them to include an “employee’s unused balance of paid leave time on each paystub or form that the employer normally furnishes to the employee to notify them of wage payments and deductions from wages”—a requirement over and above that required by the law. (See Section 200.250.)
- Permit employees to roll-over up to 80 hours of unused paid leave from one year to another. (See Section 200.320.)
- Include unclear language pertaining to the definition of the “regular rate of pay” that businesses must pay employees while they are on paid leave. (See Section 200-110.)
