Paid Family Leave

Paid Family Leave

As of 2022, nine states have paid family leave (PFL) or family and medical leave act (FMLA) legislation in place. While eligibility requirements vary slightly between the states, in general, PFL provides partial wage replacement, up to a certain percentage, for working individuals who need time off to:

• Care for a child within the first year of birth, adoption or foster care
• Plan for a spouse’s deployment or manage the household while a military spouse is deployed
• Care for an ill or disabled family member
