I do contract work for a construction company inside the l.a. refineries. Yes they take out taxes and give us full benefits. I started in Aug 2014.
Starting this year there was a new law that started where every 30 hours you worked you gained 1 hour of paid sick time.
(A little back story) in Feb 2015, a new PTO (paid time off) system was placed. The PTO system cancels out sick leave. Before that was regular Vacation time. In July of 2015, union members were switched back to the regular vacation time. Now we are in 2016 and i have been not accruing any sick time. When I went and asked HR about why we aren't accruing anything, they just simply said "oh we don't do that."
Isn't it illegal since it is the law to provide us with sick time now?
