Department of Labor Continues to Clarify Guidance on FFCRA Guidance
The Department of Labor (DOL) continues to update its guidance document on implementation of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA), almost on a daily basis. The updated document released by the agency late last week appears to suggest that employees who cannot work because their businesses are subject to a government shutdown order or they are ordered to shelter at home will not qualify for Emergency Paid Sick Leave or Emergency FMLA.

SESCO retainer client and select association members can contact SESCO consultants and attorneys at no charge to discuss any COVID-19 or any labor and employment law matter. For businesses who are not retainer clients, contact SESCO to explore our monthly service agreement program providing professional support services via a fixed fee.
