Full-time employees of most businesses would earn nine days a year. Businesses with 10 employees or fewer would be required to provide five days a year to full-time workers. - JS Online
On election day here in Milwaukee voters will cast a vote concerning the Sick Leave Referendum. This will force employers to provide mandatory sick days. On top of the proposed increase in sales tax, and the 14.6% increase in property taxes the leaders must be doing everything possible to drive business out of Milwaukee.
I am not sure what these idiots are thinking. Raising the Property Tax, increasing the sales tax, and now create mandatory paid sick leave. OK as a business owner why would I not immediately pick up and move? The only people you are requiring to pay the added sales tax is the poor people who don't have the means to travel across the lines to pay the cheaper taxes. The businesses aren't going to be staying long. I heard several small business owners who said if it passes that is fine by them, they are going to take away the paid holidays they now give and switch those over to the mandatory sick days.
Nice Job Milwaukee, it won't be long before this town dries up and blows away.
