HB4076 amends the Paid Leave for All Workers Act by removing exemptions for employees in the construction industry who are covered by a bona fide collective bargaining agreement. The bill also redefines "construction industry" to include activities such as moving construction materials, snow plowing, and refuse collection. Employees in Illinois are entitled to earn and use up to a minimum of 40 hours of paid leave during a 12-month period, which may be carried over annually if unused. The paid leave may be taken for any reason and does not require documentation or certification.
