How do I request sick leave in California?

How to request the sick leave available to you

Written by Scooter

Scoot Process:

Consult your Scoot Consultant for detailed information about the amount of sick pay you may be eligible to receive. Sick leave is calculated by using the employee’s regular rate of pay, and the actual dollar amount you receive may vary depending on your compensation plan.

To use sick leave, you must be scheduled to work an assignment and notify Scoot as early as possible that you are unable to complete the scheduled assignment and wish to use your accrued sick leave. This request may be made verbally, in writing, or by email.

Please contact your Scoot Consultant to learn how many sick leave hours you have accrued

State Policy:

You will be eligible to accrue and use paid sick leave in accordance with applicable California and local laws. Generally, this means that you will accrue one hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours you work up to a cap of 80 hours and you may use up to 48 accrued hours in any 12-month period. You become eligible to use paid sick leave on your 90th day of work with Scoot Education provided you have been employed by the Company in California for at least 30 or more days within a year of your employment with the Company.
