Statutory Sick Leave Bill 2021
The Government published the proposed Sick Leave Bill 2021 which commenced legislative scrutiny on 10 November. The Bill will initially provide for a minimum of three days sick leave per year for all employees but this is expected to eventually increase to ten. It will be paid at 70% of regular earnings up to €110 per day from the first day of illness but this can be varied by ministerial order.
