Allows long-term care facility employees to accrue paid sick leave.

New Jersey S2772 amends existing law to allow employees in long-term care facilities to accrue paid sick leave. Previously, this requirement did not apply to per diem health care employees, except for certified homemaker-home health aides. The bill mandates that long-term care facilities also provide accumulated paid sick leave to their employees. Accrual begins on the effective date of the bill, and employees can use the leave starting 120 days after commencing employment.
