Don’t Leave This For Later - Advice For Employers On New Bereavement And Sick Time Laws

 
“Two recent laws in Illinois and Chicago provide employees with unpaid leave for the death of a child or paid leave for an illness. On June 22, 2016, the Chicago City Council passed an ordinance guaranteeing paid sick leave to private sector and City of Chicago employees. On July 29, Governor Bruce Rauner signed the Child Bereavement Leave Act (“CBLA”) into law, which provides unpaid leave to employees who lose a child. The CBLA became effective at the time of its signing, and the Sick Leave Ordinance becomes effective on July 1, 2017.

Child Bereavement Leave Act—What Illinois Employers Need To Know
• The CBLA applies to all employers in Illinois with 50 or more employees that are also covered by the FMLA.
• Employees must be employed for at least 12 continuous months and have worked at least 1,250 hours in the previous year to qualify for leave.
