Definition of misuse of earned sick and safe time provided.

This bill clarifies how Minnesota employers can identify and address misuse of earned sick and safe time by adding specific definitions to state law. It allows employers to request reasonable documentation from employees when there is a pattern of suspected misuse, such as repeatedly taking time off on days surrounding holidays or using small increments at shift boundaries. The legislation also states that requiring such documentation is not considered retaliation against employees. These changes apply to all employers and employees covered by Minnesota's earned sick and safe time requirements.
