On Monday, April 20th, Spokane City Council

passed Resolution No. 2015-0038 which establishes

a working group to provide recommendations to

City Council on an earned sick and safe leave policy

for the City of Spokane (city-wide).

The goal of the working group is to provide specific

recommendations to the Council on elements of an

appropriate policy for the City that considers

community health and well-being, preventing spread

of disease, economic equality, business vitality,

family and personal safety related to domestic

violence, and regional competitiveness.

Council encourages the working group to review

elements of other city or state policies, but provide

policy recommendations that consider local business

and workforce needs.
