Board of Health vote scheduled on paid parental leave proposal
The proposal would give eligible workers at businesses with 15 or more employees 12 weeks of paid parental leave, if it clears the Board of Health and County Council.
The proposal would provide paid parental leave to workers who have been employed for at least six months or 625 hours.
The Board of Health introduced the first version of the paid parental leave policy in May. It would have required businesses of all sizes to provide 18 weeks of paid parental leave, and workers would have become eligible after 30 days on the job.
