Get Ready For It: Illinois Paid Leave Law Requirements for Employers

The Illinois Paid Leave for All Workers Act will make Illinois just the third state to pass a law mandating paid leave for ALL employees for any reason. While the law does not go into effect until January 1, 2024, now is the time to review your current policies and practices and consider what you will need to do to be in compliance with this new law. Among other things, this new law raises a number of questions for employers, including: 1. What does the new Illinois law on paid leave require? 2. Does my organization fall into any exceptions? 3. How does this state law affect the Cook County and Chicago paid sick leave ordinances that my company is already subject to? In this webinar, we will tackle these questions, along with a refresher on Cook County and Chicago ordinance requirements for paid sick leave, as well as practical pointers on how to best implement and administer this new leave in conjunction with or in addition to your current leave policies.
