Allegheny County’s Board of Health amended its paid parental leave proposal following public hearings. The revised plan would offer up to 12 weeks of paid leave within a child’s first year after birth or adoption, down from the original 18 weeks. The benefit would apply to employers with at least 15 eligible full- or part-time workers, provided the worker has been employed for at least six months and worked 625 hours. The amendment also includes eligibility for stillbirths.
