One at One: Paid Sick Leave & Teleworking

Today’s Issue:

Whether an employee may take intermittent paid sick leave while teleworking?

Answer:

Yes, if approved by the employer. If an employee is unable to telework normal scheduled work hours due to a qualifying reason under the Emergency Paid Sick Leave Act, the employer may allow for the employee to use intermittent paid sick leave.
