Healthy Families and Workplace Act

Employers with more than 15 employees must provide employees with paid sick leave. Employees accrue one hour at normal wage per every 30 hours worked. Colorado requires up to a maximum of 48 hours of paid sick leave. Employees may use accrued hours as soon as they are accrued. Employees can carry over up to 48 hours of unused paid sick leave to the next year. Employees can use paid sick leave for their or their family member for:

  • Mental or physical illness or injury, including diagnosis, treatment, preventive care
  • Caring for sick family members
  • Preventive medical care
  • Reasons related to domestic abuse, sexual assault, or harassment
  • School or childcare closures due to a public health emergency as declared by a public official

Smaller employers will begin to be covered under the Act beginning January 1, 2022

Beginning on the date of hire (or the applicable effective date of the Act, whichever is later), covered employees will accrue one hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked, up to 48 hours, or six eight-hour workdays of accrued time. Employees can roll over unused paid sick time, though employers can limit use of leave to 48 hours in any given year.
