The new Supplemental Sick Leave, retroactively effective to 1/1/21, provides a new 2 weeks of sick leave for absences related to Covid, including getting vaccinated or recovering from vaccine side effects.

This means that UFCW 770 members can take paid time off to get vaccinated and recover from vaccine side effects as long as they have not used 2 weeks of Covid sick leave since 1/1/21.
