State Employees - As introduced, excludes from state service officers and employees of certain state entities; expands bereavement leave for certain categories of state officers and employees. - Amends TCA Section 8-30-102 and Title 8, Chapter 50, Part 1.

HB 112 would have expanded bereavement leave for certain state employees in Tennessee. It specifically added staff from the Tennessee sports wagering council and full-time members of the parole board and inmate disciplinary oversight board to the list of employees eligible for extended leave. The bill proposed granting up to 10 days of paid leave for the death of a spouse, child, or stepchild, 5 days for parents or stepparents, and 3 days for siblings, grandparents, or foster parents. These changes applied only to employees covered under the amended sections of state law, which were not enacted as the bill was withdrawn on February 5, 2025.
