Information about Paid Sick Leave and Unemployment Claims

Governor Cuomo enacted a law that provides benefits – including sick leave, paid family leave, and disability benefits – to New York employees impacted by mandatory or precautionary orders of quarantine or isolation due to COVID-19. If you have any questions about this law please visit www.ny.gov/COVIDpaidsickleave or call the COVID-19 Hotline at 1-888-364-3065.

Additionally, New York State is waiving the 7-Day waiting period for Unemployment Insurance benefits for people who are out of work due to Coronavirus (COVID-19) closures or quarantines. You can read more here: Online Services for Individuals
