Access to Paid Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) leave benefits began on January 1, 2024, for eligible employees.
Paid leave benefits include up to 12 weeks of leave (or 16 weeks in certain circumstances) for the employee's own serious health condition, to care for a family member with a serious health condition, to care for a new child during the first year after their birth, adoption or foster care placement, for a qualifying exigency leave, and safe leave (leave related to domestic violence).
Funding for FAMLI benefits is derived from employer and employee premium contributions, which began on January 1, 2023.
