This bill modifies Washington, D.C.'s paid leave policies for government employees. It reduces the number of paid leave workweeks for family leave from 8 to 2 and requires non-probationary employees to sign a continuation agreement to work 12 additional weeks after leave. Employees must also provide written notice before using paid leave, including a reason within HIPAA guidelines. The changes directly affect District government employees (including independent agency staff) who qualify for parental, family, or medical leave under the revised eligibility rules.
