as an employee. An employer may provide paid sick leave in advance of accrual provided that
such front-loading meets or exceeds the requirements of this section for accrual, use, and
carryover of paid sick leave. 
(b) An employee is authorized to use paid sick leave for the following reasons: 
(i) An absence resulting from an employee's mental or physical illness, injury, or health
condition; to accommodate the employee's need for medical diagnosis, care, or treatment
of a mental or physical illness, injury, or health condition; or an employee's need for
preventive medical care; 
(ii) To allow the employee to provide care for a family member with a mental or physical illness,        Formatted: Centered, Indent: Left: 0", Right: 0.01"
injury, or health condition; care of a family member who needs medical diagnosis, care, or

(iii) When the employee's place of business has been closed by order of a public official
for any health-related reason, or when an employee's child's school or place of care has
been closed for such a reason. 
(c) An employee is authorized to use paid sick leave for absences that qualify for leave under
the domestic violence leave act, chapter 49.76 RCW. 
(d) An employee is entitled to use accrued paid sick leave beginning on the ninetieth calendar
day after the commencement of his or her employment. 
(e) Employers are not prevented from providing more generous paid sick leave policies or
permitting use of paid sick leave for additional purposes. 
(f) An employer may require employees to give reasonable notice of an absence from work, so
long as such notice does not interfere with an employee's lawful use of paid sick leave. 
(g) For absences exceeding three days, an employer may require verification that an employee's
use of paid sick leave is for an authorized purpose. If an employer requires verification,
verification must be provided to the employer within a reasonable time period during or after the
leave. An employer's requirements for verification may not result in an unreasonable burden or
expense on the employee and may not exceed privacy or verification requirements otherwise
established by law. 
(h) An employer may not require, as a condition of an employee taking paid sick leave, that the
employee search for or find a replacement worker to cover the hours during which the employee
is on paid sick leave.

(i) For each hour of paid sick leave used, an employee shall be paid the greater of the minimum
hourly wage rate established in this chapter or his or her normal hourly compensation. The
employer is responsible for providing regular notification to employees about the amount of paid
sick leave available to the employee. 
(j) Unused paid sick leave carries over to the following year, except that an employer is no t
required to allow an employee to carry over paid sick leave in excess of forty hours. 
(k) This section does not require an employer to provide financial or other reimbursement fo r
accrued and unused paid sick leave to any employee upon the employee's termination ,
resignation, retirement, or other separation from employment. When there is a separation from
employment and the employee is rehired within twelve months of separation by the same
employer, whether at the same or a different business location of the employer, previously
accrued unused paid sick leave shall be reinstated and the previous period of employment shal l
be counted for purposes of determining the employee's eligibility to use paid sick leave unde r
subsection (1)(d) of this section. 
(2) For purposes of this section, "family member" means any of the following: 
(a) A child, including a biological, adopted, or foster child, stepchild, or a child to whom the
employee stands in loco parentis, is a legal guardian, or is a de facto parent, regardless of age
or dependency status; 
(b) A biological, adoptive, de facto, or foster parent, stepparent, or legal guardian of an employee
or the employee's spouse or registered domestic partner, or a person who stood in loco parentis
when the employee was a minor child; 
(c) A spouse; 
(d) A registered domestic partner; 
(e) A grandparent; 
(f) A grandchild; or 
(g) A sibling. 
(3) An employer may not adopt or enforce any policy that counts the use of paid sick leave time as
an absence that may lead to or result in discipline against the employee. 
(4) An employer may not discriminate or retaliate against an employee for his or her exercise of any
rights under this chapter including the use of paid sick leave.

Limitations of Translatable Documents

PDF files are created with text and images are placed at an exact position on a page of a fixed size.
Web pages are fluid in nature, and the exact positioning of PDF text creates presentation problems.
PDFs that are full page graphics, or scanned pages are generally unable to be made accessible, In these cases, viewing whatever plain text could be extracted is the only alternative.
