New York State’s paid quarantine leave law (enacted in early 2020; required employers to provide up to 14 days of paid quarantine leave to employees who are under a mandatory order of quarantine or isolation because of COVID-19 in addition paid sick leave) – will no longer be in effect as of July 31, 2025.
The legislation sunsetting the paid quarantine leave requirement was included as part of New York State’s budget for fiscal year 2025, which Governor Kathy Hochul signed into law last month.
