Minnesota SF4607 ensures employers reporting fraud in paid leave applications are not considered retaliatory.

Minnesota SF4607 amends state statutes to clarify that employers reporting fraud related to paid leave benefits are not engaging in retaliation. This protection applies to good faith reports to the commissioner or law enforcement. However, intentionally inaccurate reports are considered retaliatory actions. The provision aims to encourage employers to report fraud without fear of repercussions, while still holding them accountable for false accusations. This change takes effect the day after the bill's final enactment.
