1/9/19 Paid Family Leave Strategy Session


Wednesday, January 9, 2019 (11am - 12pm US/Eastern)


This is a member-only call. *

Join ERIC for a paid family leave webinar focusing on issues at the state and local levels. This webinar of the ERIC Paid Leave Task Force will provide ERIC members an opportunity to discuss the biggest pain points in paid family leave and share their perspective on how ERIC and its member companies can best work together to advocate on this issue.

Part of the discussion will include reviewing ERIC’s draft Paid Family Leave Principles. Webinar participants will be asked to provide input on the draft, and the comments will be shared with ERIC’s Board of Directors. As with our Paid Sick Leave Principles, this document will allow us to weigh in with policymakers to minimize unnecessary burdens and lessen the patchwork of conflicting laws.

The co-chairs of our Paid Leave Task Force, Meredith Singer (IBM Corporation) and Bill Latimer (Bank of America), will be leading the call, along with ERIC staff. ERIC's Paid Leave Task Force was created to complement our successful and ongoing efforts to shape paid leave policies at the federal, state, and local levels.
