The United States Department of Labor (DOL) has issued a detailed memo, in question and answer format, about the paid sick leave and the expanded family and medical leave contained in the recently enacted Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFRCA), i.e., the second coronavirus (COVID-19) relief legislation.
