The bill establishes a family and medical leave insurance program in Hawaii. Employers must contribute to a trust fund to finance benefits. Eligible employees can take up to 12 weeks of family leave and 26 weeks of medical leave per year, with benefits calculated based on their average weekly wage. The Department of Labor and Industrial Relations administers the program, sets benefit amounts, and handles appeals.
