Fourteen calendar days or Ten working days of paid sick leave at the employee¡¯s regular rate of pay, up
to three separate occasions in connection with three orders of quarantine or isolation.
Reasons for Leave:
1. Employees who are subject to quarantine or isolation following a positive COVID-19 test result
must not report to work and are entitled to 2 weeks of sick leave.
? Following a period of quarantine or isolation, the employee must provide documentation of
a negative COVID-19 test result or appropriate medical clearance before returning to work.

leave, but continue to test positive must not return to work.
