A bill has been filed in the Massachusetts legislature which would revise the new voter-approved Massachusetts Sick Leave law described in detail below by (1) postponing its effectiveness from July 1, 2015 to January 1, 2016; (2) exempting certain workers, such as executives and interns, from coverage; (3) imposing stricter requirements on employees for certifying sickness; and (4) allowing employers greater discretion in determining permissible increments of time for sick leave (instead of requiring the smallest increment that results in payable wages). STAY TUNED!
