Law now entitles all workers in S.F. to paid sick leave

As this is the first law that has been launched in the country, it requires all businesses for affording paid sick leave to employees who work inside the city. Business groups have also disparaged the law as one in a series of mandates including a citywide minimum wage and a new health insurance requirement that will make it hard for small retailers as well as restaurants to survive in the city. For instance lawmakers in New Jersey and Washington State recently introduced similar bills. But as per the suggestion of labor advocates, sick leave should be a basic human right and the San Francisco law has already fueled a movement for paid sick leave in other cities and states.
