The New York Paid Family Leave Law: Checking In on the Implementation Process

***Registration for this event is closed as we have reached maximum capacity.***

The New York Paid Family Leave Law (PFL) took effect on January 1, 2018, requiring that most New York employers provide employees with coverage for paid family leave benefits. Final regulations were issued in August 2017 and impose complex and specific requirements on employers.

This program provides a forum for employers, human resources professionals and in-house counsel to openly discuss issues and hurdles they are facing in their efforts to comply with the nuanced requirements of the PFL, including, but not limited to:

• Waiver requirements for ineligible employees
• Ensuring coverage requirements are met
• How to calculate deductions from wages to finance PFL benefits
• Posting requirements under PFL
• Coordinating PFL Leave with FMLA and employer provided leaves and paid time off
• Complying with requirements to amend company handbooks and policies
• Continuation of health care benefits during leave
