On July 30, 2014, New Yorkers can start using earned leave under the city’s new paid sick leave law.

This historic law now gives more than one million employees in New York City, including those that work for non-profits and small businesses, the right to take sick leave to care for themselves or a family member.  We want all New Yorkers to know about this important right – and we need your help.

On Wednesday, July 16, join us on our ‘Day of Action’ to let your friends and neighbors know about their right to sick leave.

As a volunteer, you will be stationed at a subway station or high-traffic transit hub to distribute materials and spread the word about paid sick leave.
