Nevada requires private employers with 50+ employees to provide paid leave, with statewide standards limiting local government modification of leave rules.
NRS 608.0197 mandates that private employers with 50 or more employees provide at least 0.01923 hours of paid leave per hour worked, accruing up to 40 hours annually. Employees may use leave for any reason after 90 days of employment. The leave is portable within the year and must be paid at the employee's regular wage rate. The Labor Commissioner enforces compliance. Employers may impose reasonable advance notice requirements and may cap annual carryover. Nevada's statewide paid leave framework limits local government authority to impose conflicting paid leave mandates.
Paid leave violations result in administrative penalties up to $5,000 per violation, back pay obligations, and Labor Commissioner enforcement actions.
