Court: Minneapolis cannot enforce sick leave rules for employers outside city
From the MINNEAPOLIS STAR TRIBUNE: A Hennepin District judge this week upheld the Minneapolis sick leave ordinance, but ruled that it cannot be enforced against employers based outside city limits. The ordinance, passed by the City Council in 2016, required that companies outside Minneapolis track employees who work in the city and allow them to accrue sick leave if they meet a threshold of 80 hours of work per year - 90 minutes per week - in Minneapolis. The Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, the state's largest business association, sued the city in October 2016, aiming to halt the ordinance that was a signature accomplishment for former Mayor Betsy Hodges and the last term's City Council.
