San Antonio Paid Sick and Safe Leave (SSL) Ordinance

Type Ordinance or Resolution
Year 2019

Policy Areas Economic Justice, Health
Many cities lack comprehensive policies to address paid sick leave, leaving workers without adequate protections for health-related absences. The Paid Sick and Safe Leave ordinance in San Antonio ensures employees can accrue leave for personal or family health needs, including medical care, mental health services, and situations involving domestic abuse or stalking. The policy includes accrual rates, carryover rules, and protections against retaliation, promoting equity and workplace security. By providing clear implementation and enforcement mechanisms, the ordinance offers a replicable model for cities seeking to enhance public health and worker rights.
