Making Paid Family and Medical Leave Easier for Small Businesses
This bill aims to make it easier for small businesses to offer paid time off for family or medical reasons. It does this by allowing them to team up with other small businesses or use special tax-exempt groups to share the costs and administration of these benefits, potentially increasing access to such leave for employees.
Key points
Allows small businesses to join forces to provide paid family and medical leave benefits to their employees.
Permits the use of tax-exempt trusts to help small businesses offer these paid leave benefits.
Requires government agencies to study and recommend further ways to make pooling and cost-sharing for paid leave easier.
