New regulations around the paid leave law that went into effect in Illinois at the start of the year now apply to many employers. The original law required employers to provide up to 40 hours of paid leave that employees could use for any reason. Any unused leave was permitted to carry over to the following year.
The new regulations provide additional clarification and definitions, including for the use, carryover, and frontloading of leave.
Review the full regulations to ensure compliance.
