Paid Leave by State.

Know your obligations before an employee submits a leave request.

The topic.

22+ states plus the District of Columbia have mandatory paid leave programs — and the rules are different in every one. Some require contributions from day one. Some kick in only above an employee threshold. Some cover family leave; others only cover the employee's own illness. This reference maps every state's sick leave mandate, PFML program, employer thresholds, wage replacement rates, and contribution requirements. Built for the HR professional who needs the answer before the employee walks in the door.
