Relates to paid family leave and bereavement for fetal death, still birth, and an infant being medically not viable to survive

This bill expands New York's paid family leave program to include bereavement leave for employees experiencing fetal death, stillbirth, or an infant declared medically not viable to survive. It amends workers' compensation law to explicitly add these circumstances as qualifying reasons for leave under the "bereavement" provision, requiring employees to provide a fetal death certificate, stillbirth certificate, or death certificate as proof. The policy applies to all eligible employees covered under the state's paid family leave system, effective January 1, 2025. It does not create new benefits but extends existing leave protections to these specific pregnancy-related losses.
