Requires all Pennsylvania employers to provide paid sick leave accruing at 1 hour per 30 hours worked, with employees eligible to use leave after 30 days of employment and able to use accrued leave after 91 days

Allows sick leave for employee or family member health care, domestic abuse/sexual violence situations, and public health emergencies, with employers permitted to cap annual use at 56 hours (7 days) and total accrual at 80 hours (10 days)

Exempts employees covered by collective bargaining agreements that already provide paid sick leave with binding arbitration, and employers with existing policies meeting or exceeding the act's requirements

Prohibits employer retaliation against employees using sick leave, with civil penalties up to $5,000 for unlawfully withheld leave and $10,000 for violations causing additional harm such as termination

Preserves municipal authority to enact more generous paid sick leave requirements and does not preempt existing local ordinances with stronger protections
