Paid Family Leave
California, New Jersey and Rhode Island currently offer paid family leave, and New York will join the list in 2018. Washington state and Washington, D.C., have also passed such laws, but they won’t take effect until later.
Paid family leave in New York will be a big change for employers, said Lauren Leyden, an attorney with Akin Gump in New York City, noting that the program will be phased in over the next few years. Employers need to understand the calculations and other mechanisms of the law and how new requirements compare to current employer offerings, she added.
Although only a handful of states offer paid family leave, others are expected to follow.
