Employers: Prepare Now for Minnesota’s Paid Leave Program

Minnesota’s Paid Leave Program begins January 1, 2026, and employers must take key steps before December 1, 2025. The program provides paid leave and job protection for employees during major life events, with premiums shared between employers and employees. Employers must set up Paid Leave administrator accounts, notify employees about the program, and decide how to handle premium contributions. Small employers may qualify for reduced rates.
