New Mexico Paid Sick Leave (Healthy Workplaces Act) of 2021 is a law requiring all private employers in New Mexico to allow employees to accrue and use a benefit called "earned sick leave."
Your employees are family and the very lifeblood of your business. We know SFAHBA members already treat their team members with the utmost respect, making sure their health and happiness translate to success for the entire business. That being said, the Healthy Workplaces Act, effective July 1st, mandates new rules and tracking of your employee’s leave.
