Paid sick leave is a crucial labor component for Maine employees and should be considered a necessary provision for all employers. According to the Maine Center for Economic Policy, today, 67 percent of those making $12/hour or less do not earn paid sick leave, which comprises 25 percent of the total working population in Maine. That is unacceptable.
