Sick leave policy payment and SDL – Our company has a very good sick leave policy. When employees in California start to receive SDI do we have to continue to pay them sick leave?

The SDI policy with sick leave will pay only up to 85 or 65% of the employees’ normal wage. So you can require them to use the sick leave to make up the difference in what they get as normal wage. But you can never exceed what your normal wage would be in any given day. You can require them to use the vacation after the use of their sick leave too.
