On November 3, 2023, the Illinois Department of Labor (IDOL) published much anticipated proposed regulations interpreting the Illinois Paid Leave for All Workers Act (the “Act”) set to take effect January 1, 2024. The Act will require nearly all covered Illinois employers to provide its covered employees up to 40 hours of paid leave per year, to be used “for any purpose.” Illinois rulemaking procedures require at least a 90-day notice period before the regulations can be finalized, meaning that employers will not have the benefit of final rules prior to the Act’s effective date. Therefore, employers should take careful note of the proposed regulations, particularly on the issues highlighted below, and implement their paid leave policies accordingly to comply with the new law.
