Relates to transfer of sick time
This bill allows public employees in New York to transfer unused sick leave to a coworker if they have run out of their own time. It applies to workers across various government sectors, including state agencies, municipalities, school districts, and public universities, provided they work under the same commission or district. The law requires that the recipient must have exhausted their personal sick leave before receiving a donation, and employers may ask for medical documentation or proof of a family emergency. Additionally, the bill ensures that existing collective bargaining agreements and employment contracts remain unchanged by these new rules.
