Although Utah does not have any mandatory sick leave laws, employers who have promised employees paid sick leave are under legal obligation to provide sick leave. Under FMLA, employees with serious illness can take up to 12 weeks of protected leave in a 12 month period.
In addition to the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), some states have their own comprehensive family leave laws that may also require employers to grant employees time off for the birth or adoption of a child or to care for a family member with a serious illness. However, Utah does not have such a law.
By law, employers must pay Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) to employees and workers when they meet eligibility conditions, including when: they've been off sick for at least 4 days in a row, including non-working days.
Utah is an employment-at-will state. This means that an employer may generally terminate an employee at any time and for any reason, unless a law or contract provides otherwise.
Currently, there is no federal sick leave law (except for the temporary COVID paid leave law that expired in 2021). However, 16 states and Washington D.C. provide state sick pay beyond temporary COVID laws. State sick leave laws ensure that all businesses covered by the law provide paid leave to sick employees.
Under Utah law, employees are entitled to certain leaves or time off, including jury duty and witness leave, voting leave, minor child court appearance leave, military leave and emergency responder leave. See Time Off and Leaves of Absence.
If an employee has unused accrued PTO when they quit, are fired, or otherwise separate from the company, they may be entitled to be paid for that time. Around half of the 50 states have statutes that require companies to pay out employees' unused PTO when the employment relationship ends.
Utah law does not require private employers to provide employees with either paid or unpaid holiday leave.
Utah labor regulations require that workers offer a meal period that is less than thirty (30) minutes to workers under the age of eighteen (18) working over (5) hours. Employers must offer a 10-minute break to workers eighteen (18) and under for every three (3) hour work phases or part thereof that is operated.
Based on the aforementioned provision of law, you may apply for long-term sick leave with your employer in writing. Further, the Employment Law is silent pertaining to merging of sick and annual leaves. However, you and your employer may mutually agree to do so.
