What is Paid Family Leave?
Starting in January of 2018, Paid Family Leave (PFL) became a mandatory benefit in New York, providing employees with job protection and paid time off for these qualifying events:
*Family members are defi ned as spouses, domestic partners, children, parents, parents-in-law, grandparents and grandchildren.
Employees are also guaranteed to be able to return to their job and continue their health insurance. If you contribute to the cost of your health insurance, you must continue to pay your portion of the premium cost while on Paid Family Leave
