States With Paid Family and Medical Leave: 2024 Guide

The benefits of paid leave are clear. Research shows that offering paid leave increases participation in the workforce, improves financial security, supports child development and improves maternal health, and can increase employee productivity and retention. Despite this, the US is one of only six countries in the world that doesn’t guarantee any type of paid leave to full-time workers. Without access to paid leave, employees who face a serious medical condition or who need to care for a family member or child can experience financial insecurity and may drop out of the workforce entirely.

Wage theft is more common than you might think, affecting millions of workers across the state. Thankfully, California is taking measures to prevent it — like passing the Wage Theft Prevention Act (WTPA).
