Changes to Accrued Paid Sick Leave
for Hourly Extra Help & Part-Time Employees
Effective January 1, 2024
Senate Bill (SB) 616 went into effect January 1, 2024 as an amendment to SB 1522. The new bill increases the number of sick leave hours accrued and sick leave hours able to be used by Hourly Extra Help and Part-Time employees in a calendar year. It will not apply to retired annuitants. The law states that, unless exempt, the part- time employee is entitled to receive the minimum requirements for paid sick leave. The City of Oceanside will ensure that part-time employees will accrue paid sick leave pursuant to the minimum requirements stated in the California Labor Code §245 et seq. which provides that an employee:
a. May accrue 1 hour paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked up to 80 hours per year;
b. May request and use up to 5 days or 40 hours of accrued paid sick leave per year;
c. May not be terminated or retaliated against for using or requesting the use of accrued paid sick
leave; and
d. Has the right to file a complaint against an employer who retaliates or discriminates against an
employee for
1. requesting or using accrued sick days;
2. attempting to exercise the right to use accrued paid sick days;
3. filing a complaint or alleging a violation of Article 1.5 section 245 et seq. of the
California Labor Code;
4. cooperating in an investigation or prosecution of an alleged violation of this Article
or opposing any policy or practice or act that is prohibited by Article 1.5 section 245 et seq. of the California Labor Code.
Sick leave accruals for Hourly Extra Help and Part-Time employees cannot be used in the first 90 days of employment for newly hired employees. If unused, up to 40 hours can roll into the next calendar year in the Pay Period containing January 1. A maximum of 80 hours can be retained annually after roll over, however only 40 hours can be used per year. The employer is not required to pay out accrued, unused paid sick days at the time of termination. If the employee is rehired within one year, previously accrued and unused paid sick days shall be reinstated.
Sick pay codes have been developed to use hourly sick leave:
- Code 24 - Sick HX Self
- Code 25 - Sick HX Family
- Code 26 - FMLA Sick HX Self
- Code 27 - FMLA Sick HX Family
Reports have been developed to help managers and supervisors in tracking leave usage. Employees will have access to view balances anytime in Oracle Time Entry. Balances will be updated each pay period and can be viewed on the electronic wage statement.
