The Ordinance requires private employers to provide one hour of paid sick leave for every thirty hours an employee works, regardless of whether the employee is full time, part time or temporary. Each employee of an employer with more than ten employees, whether full or part time, may accrue up to 72 hours (9 days) of leave in a calendar year. Employers with fewer than ten employees must allow employees to accrue up to 40 hours of paid sick leave. Sick leave begins to accrue immediately upon employment, but it cannot be used in the first 90 days of employment. The employee may also carry over any unused leave to the next calendar year, though the employee may not use more than the 72 hours in a given year (or 40 hours when the employer has less than ten employees). The employer is not required to pay out unused sick time upon termination. 11/10/08 Antitrust Business and Corporate Law Mergers and Acquisitions   Mergers & Acquisitions Law Bulletin Hart-Scott-Rodino Act Update The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has announced increases to the dollar thresholds above which premerger notification is required under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act (HSR.)
