Many workers have been ordered to stay home, as all kinds of workplaces shut down to thwart the growth of the Covid-19 outbreak.
But plenty of people still have to work in a workplace outside the home, and more than a few are known to take the risk of working while feeling ill. Oregon's Bureau of Labor and Industries, BOLI, reminds Oregon workers that even part-timers accrue sick time under state law. BOLI Commissioner Val Hoyle visits with details on sick time and its proper uses.
She gave these contact points:
