Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania’s Paid Sick Days Act will (finally) take effect on March 15, 2020, the effective date triggered when the Mayor’s Office of Equity (“MOE”) released guidelines on December 16, 2019. On February 15, 2020, one month before the ordinance’s effective date, MOE revised some of its guidelines and released a set of long-awaited Frequently Asked Questions.1 In some respects, employers may welcome the revisions and FAQs. However, challenges remain both for companies that want one policy that also complies with the Philadelphia paid sick leave ordinance and for companies with employees based outside of Pittsburgh who regularly travel through the city.
