Objective: This study examines links between paid sick leave benefits and sleep as an indicator of well-being.
Methods: Using data from 12,780 employed adult US workers in the 2018 National Health Interview Survey, the relationship between paid sick leave and sleep was explored while controlling for demographic and health status variables.
Results: Logistic multiple regression analyses revealed that compared with workers without paid sick leave, workers with paid sick leave had significantly higher odds of staying asleep, lower odds of feeling rested, and marginally significantly higher odds of having little trouble falling asleep.

Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, Florida (Dr DeRigne); and Cleveland State University, Cleveland, Ohio (Dr Stoddard-Dare, Dr Quinn, Dr Collins).
Objective: This study analyzes the relationship between number of paid sick days and reported preventive health care service usage among older US workers.
Methods: Using a 2014 cross-section of 3235 US workers age 49 to 57 from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, this study is the first to measure paid sick leave as an ordinal variable in an effort to refine our understanding of sick leave, and identify the ideal range of sick days necessary for people to access preventive health care services.
Results: We find workers with 10 or more paid sick days have increased odds of reporting five different preventive health care services.
