New: Workers And Families First Paid Sick Leave Program

From the Office of Economic and Workforce Development and the Office of the Mayor:

On behalf of Mayor London N. Breed please read below for important information regarding the WORKERS AND FAMILIES FIRST PAID SICK LEAVE PROGRAM

Dear Community Partner:

Earlier this month I announced measures to provide financial relief to San Francisco businesses and their employees, including the new San Francisco Workers and Families First Paid Sick Leave Program. The program includes $10 million in funding to support businesses and nonprofits to provide additional paid sick leave to employees, over and above their existing policies. The goal of the program is to reduce short and long-term economic impacts on San Francisco businesses and their employees caused by COVID-19.

Please share this information with your networks and encourage businesses to apply right away by clicking below or going to https://sf.gov/workers-families-first-preapproval-form
