Nevada Domestic Violence Bulletin
Nevada has released a required bulletin which explains the rights and obligations of employees and employers under Nevada's domestic violence leave laws. A bulletin is now required to be posted in a conspicuous place in the workplace explaining the maximum of 160 hours of paid leave in a 12-month period for employees who are victims of domestic violence or have family or household members that are victims of domestic violence.
The leave may be used for diagnosis, care or treatment of a health condition related to domestic violence against and employee or family or household member. It can also be used to obtain counseling, assistance or to participate in related court proceedings.
Employers are not allowed to deny an employee prescribed use of this leave, to require an employee to find a replacement worker or to retaliate against the employee for use of leave time. Employers are also required to maintain records of hour of leave taken for each employee and keep those for two years. The records should be available for inspection by the Labor Commissioner.
