The Healthy Delaware Families Act (the act) is a proposed law that, if passed, would provide access to paid leave for eligible Delaware workers. The act would create an insurance system that gives qualified employees access to paid leave, much like the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides for unpaid leave and would be paid for by payroll contributions shared equally by the employer and employees. The act has significant implications for employers with workers in Delaware.
