Staff Summary

                     In May 2020, the County adopted the FFCRA to comply with federal regulations.

                     The FFCRA requires certain employers to provide employees with paid sick leave or expanded family and medical leave for specified reasons related to novel coronavirus (COVID-19).

                     Due to the ongoing pandemic, Human Resources found a need to extend these benefits past the original expiration date of December 31, 2020.
