Colorado Healthy Families and Workplaces Act
Colorado joins the rising number of states requiring most employers to provide paid sick leave – not only extending COVID-19-related sick leave protections, but also creating a traditional paid sick leave requirement beginning January 1, 2021.
The federal Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) applies to employers with less than 500 employees. Colorado’s new law applies to all employers regardless of size. This means Colorado employers with 500 or more employees must provide paid sick leave for reasons related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Furthermore, beginning January 1, 2021, the Colorado Healthy Families and Workplaces Act requires employers with 16 or more employees to provide paid sick leave to their employees, accrued at one hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked, up to a maximum of 48 hours. Beginning January 1, 2022, the Act applies to all employers regardless of size.
The Colorado DOL has released a Paid Leave, Whistleblower, and Personal Protective Equipment poster. This must be posted and shared with remote workers electronically or on paper. Click here for the poster.
