AN ACT CONCERNING MUNICIPALITIES AND THE PAID SICK LEAVE STATUTES.

HB 6406 requires Connecticut municipalities to provide paid sick leave to their employees who currently receive fewer than 40 hours of paid sick leave under existing policies. The bill amends state sick leave statutes to include municipal employers while preserving existing collective bargaining agreements and employer policies regarding sick leave usage or doctor's note requirements. This directly affects municipal workers in Connecticut who lack sufficient paid sick leave benefits. The legislation expands coverage under state law without altering current workplace rules for employers.
