Mayor Michael Bloomberg said he’ll veto a plan to require all New York City employers with 20 or more workers to give employees paid time off when they get sick.

“While this compromise version of the bill is better than previous iterations, it will still hurt small businesses and stifle job creation,” Bloomberg said in a statement released by his office.
