Oklahoma SB1337 amends existing laws to provide paid maternity and paternity leave for certain education employees, including correctional teachers.

Oklahoma SB1337 amends Oklahoma Statutes to provide paid maternity and paternity leave for specific education employees. Eligible employees include full-time teachers, correctional teachers, and vocational instructors. The bill establishes a Public School Paid Maternity and Paternity Leave Revolving Fund to reimburse school districts for providing this leave. It also allows employees to use accrued sick leave to extend their leave beyond the six weeks provided by the bill, up to a total of twelve weeks. The leave is in addition to sick leave due to pregnancy.
