Paid Family Leave Benefits Handbook Statement: New York

In accordance with New York's Paid Family Leave Benefits Law (PFLBL), eligible employees are entitled to a leave of absence to care for a family member with a serious health condition, to bond with a new child or to assist with obligations that arise when a spouse, domestic partner, child or parent is called into active military service. Employees are also eligible to receive partial wage replacement benefits during the leave through a state-mandated paid family leave benefits program.
