An Act amending the act of June 3, 1937 (P.L.1333, No.320), known as the Pennsylvania Election Code, in preparation for and conduct of primaries and elections, providing for employment leave for voters.

SB 443 requires Pennsylvania employers to grant eligible employees up to two hours of paid time off on election days to vote. It applies to all employers in the state and directly affects registered voters who need to cast ballots during work hours. The bill mandates that employers must permit this leave without penalty, though they may specify the exact hours during which the time off can be taken. The policy aims to reduce barriers to voting by ensuring workers can access polling places without losing work time. The bill is currently pending in the State Government committee.
