New York S08366 amends workers' compensation law to include family leave benefits for employees with family members serving in the New York National.
New York S08366 amends the workers' compensation law to expand the definition of "family leave." This expansion allows employees to take leave to care for a family member in the New York National Guard who is on active duty due to a declared state of emergency or other ordered active state service. The leave can also be taken to bond with a child during the first twelve months after birth or placement for adoption or foster care. This bill ensures that employees can support their family members in the National Guard without losing their job protection and benefits.
