Allegheny County Board of Health approves paid parental leave program

Original: Allegheny County Board of Health passes paid parental leave program

The Allegheny County Board of Health has passed a paid parental leave program. According to TribLIVE, the board approved the measure, though details such as how many weeks of leave workers will receive, who qualifies, and when it takes effect were not provided in the report. If confirmed, the county would join a growing number of US local governments offering paid leave to employees.

Why now: Paid parental leave is an active policy debate in the United States, and a local health board adopting it draws attention from workers and employers alike
