Hi everyone, I am Joyce with CPA.

我們並非律師或法律機構，所以以下資訊只是根據勞工法及失業局指引作出分享.
We are not lawyers or a legal organization, so the following is what we know based on labor law and EDD guidelines.
首先，有關有薪病假，所有在加州工作的工人都有權得到有薪病假。
First, about paid sick leave, every California worker is entitled to paid sick leave.
你的僱主必須於你每工作三十小時，向你提供一小時的有薪病假。
Your employer must provide you one hour of paid sick leave with every 30 hours you have worked.
大家可於支票尾查閱你累積了多少有薪病假。
You can check your paid sick leave accrual at your paid stubs.
而根據你公司大小及僱員人數，可能會於你使用有薪病假時有不同限制。
According to the size of your company and how many people it employs, there might be different limitations to how you can use your paid sick leave.
有薪病假適用於你本人或家人需要診治，約見醫生，或需要在家休息，又或用於照顧生病的家人。
Paid sick leave can be used when yourself or your family needed treatment, for doctor’s appointment, or for resting at home. You can also use it to take care of family members who are sick.
所以，鼓勵大家必須好好利用有薪病假，如你有任何疾病徵狀，千萬不要上班，不需要擔心失去收入。
Therefore, we encourage everyone to use your paid sick leave well. If you have any symptoms of being sick, do no go to work and don’t worry about losing income.
如果你本人感染了新型冠狀病毒，除有薪病假外，你可能合資格申請殘疾補助金。
If you are infected with COVID-19, besides paid sick leave, you might be qualified for State Disability Insurance (SDI).
如果你的家人感染了新型冠狀病毒，而你需要照顧他們，無法上班而失去收入，
If your family member is infected with COVID-19, and you need to care for them, losing income because you cannot work,
除有薪病假外，你可能合資格申請有薪家庭休假，
Besides paid sick leave, you might be qualified for Paid Family Leave.
加州失業局會補助你60%-70%的薪金。請向加州失業局查詢。
California EDD will supplement 60%-70% of your income. Please inquire with EDD.
最近有很多僱主，可能因疫情關係而削減你的工時，又或者暫停營業，影響你的收入。大家可以申請失業金。
Recently we heard that many employers might be cutting your hours or temporarily shut down because of COVID-19, which impacts your income. You can apply for Unemployment Insurance.
另外，三藩市校區已經公佈，由現時直至4/3，所有三藩市公立學校暫時關閉。
Also, SFUSD has announced that from now until 4/3, all SF public schools are temporarily closed. (March 2020: 所有SFUSD學校到2020年5月1日關閉 / March 2020: All SFUSD schools to be closed until May 1st).
如果你需要照顧你的子女，無法上班，亦有可能合資格申請失業金。
If you need to care for your children and cannot go to work, you might be qualified for Unemployment Insurance
