MISSOURI — On Tuesday, employers across Missouri were required to notify their employees of the new paid sick time policy taking effect after voters passed Proposition A in November.
Back in November, 57.5 percent voted “yes” on Proposition A, while 42.5 percent voted “no” on the proposition. Paid sick leave and an increase to minimum wage were both included in the proposition.
The new law mandates employees of private employers may accrue one hour of “earned paid sick time” for every 30 hours worked. Employees will begin accruing paid sick leave starting Thursday, May 1, according to the Missouri Department of Labor.
