As an HR specialist, is important to have knowledge of the different California laws as to family leave. Here is a brief summary to be used by HR consultants.
California Paid Family Leave Act. This is under Section 3303 of the California Unemployment Insurance Code. This allows paid leave, up to 70% of one’s salary, for 6 weeks. Employees pay automatically into the state disability insurance fund with payroll deductions. It is then administered by EDD. Applies to the need to take time-off to care for a seriously ill family member (spouse, marital partner, parent, grandparent, grandchild, aunt, uncle, sibling or child) as well as baby bonding for the first year after birth. It does not apply to leave for the employee herself (except for later baby bonding) –only to the disabilities of other family members.
