Paid (and unpaid) leave

Paid sick leave

In accordance with paid sick leave laws, we provide paid sick leave to all employees who are eligible and who work within the city/county/state limits that have mandated paid sick leave. 

For more information on if you’re eligible for sick leave, view your state's paid leave poster.

Using the link above, please review your state & county/city (if listed) employment posters. They’ll explain any employment benefits available to you, based on your work location.

If you’re eligible, here's how paid leave is accrued and when you can begin using it:

Hours are accrued on a weekly basis and will appear on your pay stub. Hours requested are subject to availability and eligibility so please verify available hours by viewing your paystub or contacting your Populus Group representative before requesting. 

Paid sick time accrual begins on your first date of employment and is subject to the city/state waiting period before it can be used, typically 90 days after the beginning of your employment, but can be longer depending on location.
