SB 516 – State Employees/Paid Parental Leave (not sure if we should track this one so I kept it short)
Primary Sponsors: Sen. Jay Chaudhuri (D – Wake), Sen. Danny Britt (R – Robeson), Sen. Joyce Krawiec (R – Forsyth)
This bill would give State Employees paid parental leave within the first 12 weeks after birth or adoption of a child. This time would be available without using the employee’s sick and vacation leave, however, could not be used for retirement purposes.
