# Law360 Quotes Partner Mark A. Konkel On NYC Paid Sick Leave

 March 20, 2014

 

 

 

 

 

 

Partner [Mark A. Konkel](/Our-People/Mark-A-Konkel) was quoted in the *Law360* article ​“NYC Law Shows Paid Sick Leave Push Picking Up Steam.” The article addresses a new bill signed by Mayor Bill de Blasio, expanding paid sick leave obligations for employers in New York City, as the law continues a surge in cities and states requiring paid sick time for workers. Mr. Konkel notes that, ​“clearly you are seeing a trend, and it’s gaining steam…it’s inevitable that more jurisdictions will adopt paid sick time rules.” Mr. Konkel predicts that ​“large urban centers with a middle - to lower-class socioeconomic profile and a sizable contingent of low-wage workers would be particularly fertile ground for such initiatives.”
