THE GLENVIEW LANTERN
Glenview Village Board
adopts minimum wage,
sick leave ordinances,
effective July 1
Glenview will align with
Cook County’s minimum
wage and paid sick leave
ordinances beginning July
1.
The Glenview Village
Board voted 4-0 in favor
of compliance during its
Thursday, Feb. 7 meeting.
As a result, the village’s
minimum wage for employees
who do not receive
gratuities will match
Cook County’s rate of $12
per hour, with that rate set
to increase to $13 on July
1, 2020, followed by annual
increases based on
the Consumer Price Index
each July.
Employees who receive
gratuities will earn $5.10
per hour and will receive
subsequent CPI-based increases
each July.
In addition, any employee
who works at least
80 hours within any 120-
day period will accrue one
hour of paid sick leave for
every 40 hours worked,
up to a maximum accrual
of 40 hours per year. Employees
can carry over up
to 50 percent of their unused
paid sick leave from
one 12-month accrual period
to the next 12-month
accrual period, up to a
maximum of 20 hours.
Multiple Glenview
business owners, as well
as representatives from
the Glenview Chamber
of Commerce, urged the
board to delay action until
Democratic Illinois
Governor J.B. Pritzker approves
a statewide minimum
wage.
