AB 112 Nevada Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Removes an exemption from provisions providing certain employees with the right to use sick leave to assist family members. (BDR 53-318)

AB 112 removes an exemption in Nevada law that previously allowed employers covered by union contracts to deny employees sick leave for family medical needs. The bill requires all private employers providing sick leave to permit employees to use it for family care, including those covered by collective bargaining agreements (union contracts), effective for new agreements or renewals after October 1, 2025. Existing union contracts signed before that date remain unaffected. The law also clarifies that employer obligations under union contracts or other policies providing better sick leave benefits remain unchanged. This directly affects unionized workers in Nevada private businesses regarding access to sick leave for family care.

What changed between versions

Reprint 2 → As Enrolled · 2 edits
MINOR
This bill removes the exemption that previously allowed employers to ignore sick leave rules for employees covered by collective bargaining agreements. It ensures that all employees, regardless of union status, can use accrued sick leave for immediate family medical needs, provided the employer already offers such leave. The change is designed to close a loophole where unionized workers were denied family sick leave benefits that non-unionized workers received.
Scope change
The bill expands the scope of the sick leave requirement to include employees covered by valid collective bargaining agreements, whereas the previous version of the bill explicitly exempted them.
ELIGIBILITY

Deleted the exemption clause that prevented the sick leave requirement from applying to employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement.

TIMELINE

Added a grandfathering provision stating that the new requirement does not apply to collective bargaining agreements entered into before October 1, 2025, but does apply to any new or renewed agreements after that date.
