How do I know if I can receive paid sick leave for a Federal, State, or local quarantine or isolation order related to COVID-19?

Nakase|Wade law firm represents companies, businesses, and employers – exclusively.

For purposes of the FFCRA, a Federal, State, or local quarantine or isolation order includes quarantine or isolation orders, as well as shelter-in-place or stay-at-home orders, issued by any Federal, State, or local government authority that cause you to be unable to work (or to telework) even though your employer has work that you could perform but for the order. You may not take paid sick leave for this qualifying reason if your employer does not have work for you as a result of a shelter-in-place or a stay-at-home order.
