New Arizona Law Provides Minimum Wage Increases and Paid Sick Time – What Does This Mean For Your Organization?

On November 8, 2016, Arizona voters enacted the Fair Wages and Healthy Families Act, which amends the Arizona Minimum Wage Act (AMWA) to provide for incremental increases to the minimum wage for Arizona workers beginning on January 1, 2017. The Act also requires that, beginning July 1, 2017, Arizona workers shall accrue, and have the legal right to use, a minimum amount of paid sick time benefits each year. There are also other new embedded employee rights regarding finding a replacement worker, when doctors’ notes can be required and retaliation protections when employees take paid sick time. What impact do these changes have on your organization?

In this webinar, we will discuss:

• The current legal landscape and how these recent enactments have changed it
• Which companies are affected by the changes
• How your organization should prepare
