Pennsylvania HB781 establishes a pilot salary supplement program for child-care center employees working with children under four years old.

Pennsylvania HB781 amends the Human Services Code to establish a pilot salary supplement program for child-care center employees assigned to work directly with children under four years old. The program aims to create pay parity across age groups to prevent losing employees due to changes in pre-kindergarten employment salaries. The Department of Public Welfare will administer the program, which will expire after the third fiscal year.
