WorkWise Tip of the Week - 2022 COVID-19 Supplemental Paid Sick Leave Notice Requirements February 21, 2022 California Labor Commissioner, Covid-19, SPSL, Supplemental Paid Sick Leave, WorkWise Law 795 In our February 10, 2022, update on SB-114, which brought back Covid-19 Supplemental Paid Sick Leave (“SPSL”) for all businesses with 26 or more employees, we noted that the new law requires employers to display and distribute a poster about the new benefit and that the California Labor Commissioner was planning to create such a poster. This has now been done. The California Labor Commissioner model posters are now available in English and Spanish. Employers should print these out and display them in the workplace. Employers should also send copies of all remote employees. (To be on the safe side, it’s best to send copies to all employees, remote or not.) Employers should also remember that they must provide written notice to employees setting forth the amount of SPSL that employees have used on either employees’ wage statements or in separate writings provided on the designated pay date. If employees did not use any SPSL, employers should state “zero hours used.” (Note that this is different from listing regular sick leave, where the paystubs must list the unused amount of sick leave.)
