A 5761 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Provides for paid family leave following pregnancy outcome

This bill amends New York's workers' compensation law to provide paid family leave for employees recovering after specific pregnancy outcomes, including stillbirth, miscarriage, or abortion. It expands existing leave provisions by adding these scenarios as eligible reasons for taking leave under the "family leave" definition. The policy change directly affects workers who experience these events, allowing them to take paid time off from work for recovery without losing income, as defined under the amended law. The bill becomes effective 90 days after enactment.
