Bill overview
This bill, S.1840, aimed to reform the process of ‘sick leave buybacks’ in Massachusetts. Currently, employees who leave their jobs before qualifying for accrued sick time may receive a payment, known as a buyback, from their employer. The proposed legislation sought to establish clearer guidelines and regulations around these buybacks, including determining eligibility and the amount paid, to ensure fairness and transparency for both employers and employees. Ultimately, the bill failed to pass.
