Provided that workers follow company policies for notification of time off, mental health days are covered by paid time off policies, sick leave policies, and personal days off. Protected leave under the FMLA, or as a means of accommodation under the ADA, may also come into play. State and local laws and ordinances may also make provision for mental health-related sick leave. For example, New York City ordinances may require accommodations exceeding those required under the ADA.
