California requires most employers, including warehouse and logistics operators in the Inland Empire portion of San Bernardino County, to provide at least 40 hours of paid sick leave per year under SB 616.
Labor Code section 246, as amended by SB 616, requires California employers to provide 40 hours, or five days, of paid sick leave annually starting January 1, 2024. Employers may use either a one-time annual frontload or accrual at one hour for every 30 hours worked, capped at 80 hours of carryover. Paid leave can be used for the worker or family illness, preventive care, and certain safe-time reasons. San Bernardino County has not added a richer county-wide ordinance, so the state floor governs warehouse, hospitality, and small employers alike.
Denying accrual, retaliating against users, or failing to post sick leave rights can trigger Labor Commissioner penalties and civil suits.
