The Senate just approved H.R. 6201, the Families First
Coronavirus Response Act, including the "technical
corrections" passed March 16 in the House. The legislation
will soon go to the President for signature.
We summarized the new sick and family leave requirements in the
legislation in detail, including the technical corrections,
yesterday.
It is worth reiterating that the new sick and family leave
requirements apply only as to employers with less than 500
employees. This new legislation does not change that analysis.
Please watch for additional compliance materials and for a
webinar announcement. A webinar on the substantive details for the
legislation will be held in the next few business days.
