TIME OFF WORK
PAID SICK LEAVE
Various states and municipalities have passed legislation mandating paid sick leave programs
for workers within their jurisdictions. Where paid sick leave programs have been put into
effect, most often there are different requirements for:
employer and employee eligibility,
how paid sick leave is accrued, and
how sick leave is used.
We are fully compliant with all paid sick leave laws that apply to our employees, and eligible
employees will be properly informed. If you have any questions about paid sick leave, please
consult the Human Resource Service Team at 800-624-3698 or by email at service@eeihr.com.
Employees wishing to utilize paid leave time should notify the Human Resource Service Team at
least seven (7) days prior to the desired paid sick leave dates, or if that is not possible give
notification as soon as practicable.
Generally, paid sick leave is not considered a vested benefit. Therefore, accrued but unused
leave time is not paid out upon termination of employment, unless required by law. Please
refer to the notice for the state within which you work.
HOLIDAYS
We recognize the following holidays each year: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence
Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas. The holidays will be time off without pay,
since you are only paid for hours worked.
If a holiday falls on a weekend, we will inform you when the holiday will be observed.
Ordinarily, holidays falling on a Saturday will be observed the preceding Friday; holidays falling
on a Sunday will be observed the following Monday.
In addition, time off without pay may be granted to employees who desire to observe a
religious holiday that is not recognized as an official holiday by us or the client, provided undue
hardship is not introduced to the company or the client.
