Forgive me for interrupting you, but I only have a minute left.

I wanted to ask a question that is a little technical in nature. It is about calculating calendar months in order to accumulate days of paid sick leave at a rate of one day per month. If someone were hired on March 6, they would not have worked for the entire month of March.

Do they have to wait until they have worked for the entire month of April to earn their first day of paid sick leave in May? Are we talking about four consecutive weeks, regardless of the hiring date, or are we sticking with the calendar?
