AB 2123 Eliminates Employer’s Ability to Require Employees to Use Accrued Vacation Leave Before Accessing Paid Family Leave

AB 2123 California

As of January 1, 2015, employers will no longer be allowed to require employees to take up to 2 weeks of accrued vacation before employees could access benefits under California Paid Family Leave Program (PFL). PFL is a state-run program that provides benefits to individuals taking time off to care for a seriously ill child, spouse, parent, or domestic partner, bond with a new minor child, or assist military family members under active duty. 

This just makes sense. Caring for a loved one isn’t a vacation.
