State Maternity/Family Leave Law


Thirty-four States, Puerto Rico, and the District of
Columbia have enacted some form of State
maternity/family leave law to meet the changing
needs of the American work force.1 Prompted by
the recognition of increasing family responsibilities,


including those of single-parent wage earners and
dual-career families, these jurisdictions have become
laboratories for change, following patterns already
established in the private sector and in some collective
bargaining agreements.


1The information in this publication is based on State statutes. Some States may provide comparable leave to State and other
public employees through personnel codes, policy, practice, executive order, or management directive. This information may be
found in personnel manuals. While these methods and laws set a minimum standard with which employers must comply, many
employers voluntarily go beyond these requirements.
