Clarifies that Universal Paid Leave benefits cannot be offset by short-term disability insurance.
The District of Columbia PR26-0150 bill aims to clarify that Universal Paid Leave (UPL) benefits cannot be reduced by short-term disability insurance. The legislation addresses concerns that some insurance companies do not believe their short-term disability benefits are protected by the District’s anti-offsetting provision. This bill strengthens the Department of Insurance, Securities, and Banking’s enforcement authority to prevent interference with UPL benefits, ensuring that District workers receive the full benefit of their UPL. The resolution takes effect immediately.
