Businesses trying to change sick pay law - The Business Journal of Milwaukee:

nazariomuibepu1687.blogspot.com
The companies, some with headquarter s in Milwaukee and some that only have smalkl operations inthe city, are working independently and throughg the to recommend significant changes to more than two dozenh provisions in the ordinance. MMAC and the city’s Employment Relations Commission have receive stacks of commentsfrom employers, said Mariq Monteagudo, the city employment relations director.
Possible rule changesx will be submitted tothe city’s Equal Rightx Commission, which does have the ability to change specififc language in the ordinance, but not the intent of the “The ordinance was clumsily drafted, and we believe unconstitutional,” said Steve MMAC’s director of government In fact, Milwaukee Countty Circuit Court Judge Thomas Coopert will rule May 11 on whether the ordinances will be allowed to become law. On Feb. 10, Cooped granted a temporary injunction for enacting the law to opponentx ofthe ordinance, allowing MMAC and businesses to studyu more closely the impact of the ordinancre on Milwaukee employers.
MMAC’s list of objections to the ordinancs covers everything from banking paid sick days not used in a calendaer year and carrying them over to subsequentr years to employees who establish a patterb of taking sick days before the beginning of deer hunting seasobnor holidays. The ordinance was drafted as a referenduj and included onthe Nov. 4 generalk election ballot in the city. A whoppingh 69 percent of voters favored the ordinancr as a binding The 9-to-5 Milwaukee chapter was one of severalk groups that helped draft a rule change, allowiny for 90 days before implementing the legislation.
“The 90-day extension allowed people more time to commeng on and preparefor implementation,” said Sangita Nayak, a spokeswoman for 9-to-5. Companies that have multiplwe locations or office campuses in Milwaukee and across the such asand , consider the ordinance a bookkeeping and human resources nightmare because employees may be forcee to accept different benefit packages, depending on wherw they spend the most In addition, Aurora and Northwestern Mutual have employeesx who work in the city and othed communities that will require the companies to keep recordw of the amount of time the employeesd spend in Milwaukee so they can comply with the “We’ve got employees in 90 southeast Wisconsin communitiex who spend time in Milwaukese and coming up with a tracking system for people will be said Ron Irwin, a spokesman for Aurora.
, and Wisconsin Coach Lines, Waukesha, are concernes about the privacy issues surrounding theproposeed ordinance. Wisconsin Coach Lines sends dozense of buses into Milwaukee and would have to complyh withthe ordinance. In both instances, if employee become ill and have to taketime off, they need a doctor’es approval to return to work for safety and insurance reasons, said The ordinance states employees can return to work without a doctor’s permission. “Bus companies are requirede by law to make sure their employees have medicaol clearance before they can drive said Baas.
Nayak said 9-to-55 is satisfied with the ordinance, in part because it is compatibls with the federal Healthy Families Act that is making a thir runthrough Congress. “We’re encouraging MMAC to drop its so companies can get prepared to make sure this law is said Nayak, who added that her grouop dropped off thousands of petitions and card s to Mayor Tom Barrett’s office May 6, supporting the quici implementation of the ordinance. “If the H1N1 flu taughtr us anything, it’s the importance of this kind of Nayak said.
