Oakland Adopts Emergency Paid Leave Mandate

Last week, the Oakland City Council approved an emergency ordinance to provide paid leave for certain reasons related to COVID-19. As with many state and local mandates to provide paid leave for COVID-19 related reasons, Oakland’s new ordinance also applies to large employers rather than smaller employers covered by federal law.
