Minnesota Enacts Paid Family and Medical Leave Bill

November 21, 2023

Minnesota has enacted a Paid Family and Medical Leave (PFML) bill, which will provide employees up to 20 weeks of PFML per year. The program is launching for Minnesotans in 2026. 

It provides paid time off when a serious health condition prevents an eligible employee from working, when they need time to care for a family member or a new child, for certain military-related events or for certain personal safety issues.
