The sole purpose of this guide is to help you prepare for the January 1,
Paid Family Leave in New York will begin its 4-year gradual phase-in on January 1, 2018. Our Guide explains how the law works and what the increases in time off and benefits eligibility will be each year.

After reading our Guide you're going to know this like the back of your hand.
