Question: If I have accrued sick time and I am having to take off the rest of my work day due to my illness. Is my job able to deny that time?

Answer: There are statewide rules as well as employer-specific policies that say when and how an employee may use their earned paid sick time, so it is impossible to determine whether a specific employer’s denial of a specific employee’s request was or was not lawful without access to many more details. If you would like to discuss your specific situation with a legal advocate, there are links to free and low-cost legal services on this website at http://www.azlawhelp.org/accessToJustice.
