The New York State Paid Family Leave law (PFL) is a groundbreaking law that is intended to apply to virtually all private employers in New York. When fully phased in, PFL will provide eligible employees with up to 12 weeks of job-protected, paid family leave while they are out of work for certain qualifying reasons. Covered employers must maintain an employee’s health insurance coverage during the leave, provide the employee with certain reinstatement rights after the leave, and may not retaliate against any employee who uses PFL.
Bond’s Labor and Employment Practice understands that PFL is both new and complex. We also understand that employers should be primarily focused on running their business, rather than worrying about compliance under the PFL. Our labor and employment practice has the depth and experience to understand the intricate details of the law and regulations so that we can work with clients on compliance issues and best practices.
