Paid Sick Leave Law
My company went bankrupt and was sold to another company. However, the new company that bought the old employer is now refusing to honor previously accrued sick leave, stating that I was technically terminated from the previous company at bankruptcy and hired as a “new employee” under the new company. Is this allowed? It seems that if they use the terminology of being terminated from the bankrupt company and hired as a new employee with the new company, they are able to get out of honoring accrued sick leave.
