Paid Family Leave (PFL)

Paid Family Leave (PFL) is a government program that allows employees to take time off work with pay to care for a new child, a sick family member, or to deal with personal health issues. It provides financial support during this time, so workers can focus on their family without worrying about lost income. The specific duration and eligibility can vary by location, but the aim is to balance work and family responsibilities, ensuring that employees have the time they need for critical family matters while still receiving compensation.
