Workers Need Paid Sick Days

Kistine Carolan

Reporter

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Area unions and women's groups are pushing City Council to pass a bill that would guarantee paid sick days for all workers in Philadelphia. The choice to work while sick or stay home and lose wages is no choice at all.

To support this effort, call your City Council person and ask them to pass this bill!
