On February 16, 2023, San Francisco’s Office of Labor Standards Enforcement (OLSE) published FAQs pertaining to the new Private Sector Military Leave Pay Protection Act (MLPPA). As described in the February 2,2023, edition of Compliance Corner, the MLPPA requires private employers with at least 100 employees (regardless of location) to provide supplemental paid leave during a qualifying military leave for a maximum of 30 days in a calendar year. The MLPPA became operative on February 19, 2023.
The MLPPA requires the covered employers to compensate the eligible employee for the difference between the employee’s gross military pay and the amount of gross pay the employee would have received from the employer had the employee worked the employee’s regular work schedule.
The FAQs provide more clarity and additional guidance on some issues, including the employer’s notice requirement and the method to calculate the supplemental compensation that was not fully explained in the ordinance.
Employers with 100 or more employees, regardless of where they work, and at least one employee working in the City and County of San Francisco should review the new FAQs.
For more information regarding San Francisco’s new paid military leave requirement (MLPPA), see the article published in the February 2, 2023, edition of Compliance Corner.
