Enacted
Existing law establishes, within the state disability insurance program, a family temporary disability insurance program, also known as the paid family leave program, for the provision of wage replacement benefits to workers who take time off work to care for certain seriously ill family members, to bond with a minor child within one year of birth or placement, as specified, or to participate in a qualifying exigency related to the covered active duty or call to covered active duty of certain family members.
Existing law authorizes an employer to require an employee to take up to 2 weeks of earned but unused vacation before, and as a condition of, the employees initial receipt of these benefits during any 12-month period in which the employee is eligible for these benefits.
This bill would make that authorization and related provisions inapplicable to any disability commencing on or after January 1, 2025. The bill would also make nonsubstantive changes.
