Abstract
With high unemployment and a severe jobs shortfall increasingly threatening the economic security of North Carolina’s working families, it is imperative that state leaders develop policies that not only create jobs but also sustain employment. Workplace policies that promote family economic security, such as paid sick days and family leave insurance, allow workers to keep much-needed wages and provide job protection when inevitable life events arise. At the same time, these policies can create cost-saving solutions for employers (abstract from: http://www.ncjustice.org/?q=node/1051).
