Pennsylvania HB689 amends work-hours and leaves for state employees during office closures due to emergencies.
HB689 amends the Administrative Code of 1929 to address work-hours and leaves for state employees during office closures caused by emergencies. If an office closure prevents an employee from performing duties for at least five consecutive business days, the employee will be placed on unpaid leave until they can resume regular duties. Employees retain their fringe benefits during unpaid leave and may use accrued paid leave instead. The provisions do not apply to employees who can perform duties through telework or are furloughed indefinitely. The act takes effect in 60 days.
