 Rulemaking Hearing
On September 19, 2023, Employment Security Department filed a CR-102 for Paid Family and Medical Leave rulemaking. The CR-102 was filed to amend existing rules to implement legislation that passed during the 2023 legislative session. Substitute Senate Bill (SSB) 5286 made changes to RCW 50A.10.030 regarding how the annual premium rate is calculated for employers and employees. SSB 5586 made changes to RCW 50A.25.040 that will allow employers to access information about their current employees who are taking paid family or medical leave. In addition, the proposed changes align public records rules with agency rules that are already in place. View the text of the proposed rules and supporting documents on our website in the ?Current Rulemaking? section.
A rulemaking hearing will be held via TEAMs and we encourage anyone interested in the proposed rules to provide testimony.
