Establishes paid family leave for Hawaii state and county employees.

The bill proposes to amend Hawaii Revised Statutes to provide state and county employees with five days of paid family leave per calendar year. This leave is intended to support employees during times of birth, adoption, fostering a new child, or caregiving for a family member during illness. The leave is not to be substituted for accrued vacation, sick leave, or other paid leave. The bill aims to enhance recruitment and retention of quality employees, reduce employment turnover, and increase workforce productivity and morale.
