What changed in the latest version
1 added · 18 removedPlain-language change summary
The amendment to Bill SB 6 changes the amount of leave an employee can take from 8 hours to a maximum of 24 hours during a school year. Additionally, it removes the requirement that employees must use all their accrued vacation time before they can take this leave. This is significant because it allows employees more flexibility and access to leave without depleting their vacation days first, making it easier for them to take necessary time off when needed.
