Preparing Your Small Business for FAMLI
FAMLI Employer Webinar Series: Preparing Your SmallBusiness for FAMLI
Colorado voters approved Proposition 118 in November of 2020, paving the way for a state-run Paid Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) program. The FAMLI program will ensure all Colorado workers have access to paid leave in order to take care of themselves or their family during life circumstances that pull them away from their jobs — like growing their family or taking care of a loved one with a serious health condition. Both employers and employees will contribute premiums to the program. Premium payments begin in 2023, so employees may start to see a FAMLI premium deduction on their pay stubs beginning January 1, 2023. FAMLI will start providing benefits to employees beginning January 1, 2024. Most eligible employees will receive up to twelve weeks of leave. Those who experience pregnancy or childbirth complications may receive an additional four weeks.
The FAMLI statute requires that employers post a notice to inform workers about the FAMLI Program by January 1, 2023. We now have the Required 2023 FAMLI Program Notice poster up on the FAMLI website for you to download and post for your employees to see. It must be hung in a prominent, visible workplace location. Download your copy of the poster today!
