In January Family Forward Oregon released a report with the Center for American Progress, Evaluating Paid Sick Time: Social, Economic and Health Implications for Portland. In the report, we discuss public health risks, social and community risks, impacts on children’s health and education, how employers are affected by paid sick time, and we take a close look at the San Francisco experience since their paid sick time policy has been in place since 2007. This report is for anyone interested in working family policies, public health, high-road economies, and modernizing workplace policies to really work for families.
