Explicación

Labor Code §246.5(c) forbids denying the right to use accrued sick leave and forbids discharge, discipline or any other retaliation for using it or for filing a complaint about it, with a rebuttable presumption of retaliation if adverse action follows within 30 days. (d) is the at-will defense, which fails because at-will permits termination for any lawful reason and this reason is unlawful. (a) invents an age limit; §246.5(a) covers a child of any age, along with parent, spouse, registered domestic partner, grandparent, grandchild, sibling and a designated person. (c) offers notice as a cure, and notice cures nothing when the motive is the protected use.
