2023 DMEC Virtual Compliance Conference: Leave Trends - Potential Expansion at Every Level

The leave landscape is changing as proposed and new leave laws continue to multiply and new trends emerge. In this session, we will review expansion of covered leave reasons including bereavement, pregnancy loss, and safe leave; explore the latest in proposed new paid family and medical leave programs, and predictions of which states are most likely to see the passage of a new program; and delve into new and emerging duration trends including extensions of time specific to pregnancy-related conditions, and how each state differs in their interpretation. We will also present the latest trends and employer considerations in light of these developments.
