​The Dallas City Council recently approved an ordinance that would require Dallas employers to provide paid sick leave for employees.  The maximum amount employees can take annually is:

Other guidelines include:
  • Employees would be eligible to accrue 1 hour for every 30 hours worked up to the maximums listed above;
  • Accrued, but unused Paid Sick time must be carried into the following year, but the accrual can stop at the maximum annual amounts
  • If your current Paid Sick time policy is more generous than the proposed policy, the current policy may be kept in place and providing additional Paid Sick time is not required.
If you offer a a Sick time Policy or Paid Time Off (PTO) plan that allows more time than the maximum annual amounts, you still need to keep updated on this ordinance. In some cases, the state and city Paid Sick time policies may require more generous features than your PTO plan.
Both Austin and San Antonio have passed similar ordinances, which are currently on hold pending litigation, as well as the Texas state legislature has several pending bills that would stop cities from enforcing paid sick leave ordinances.  With these two obstacles, the Dallas paid sick leave ordinance may not become effective. We will keep you updated on the status.
