HR departments take note: the Carer’s Leave Regulations 2024 will come into force on 6 April 2024. We have known about this new right for a while but we now have the date from which the new right can be exercised by employees. This means that employees will now be entitled to take up to one week of statutory unpaid carer’s leave in a 12-month period to care for, or arrange care for, dependants with long-term care needs. Employees who exercise their right under these Regulations will be protected from detriment and unfair dismissal at the hands of their employer. Leave policies may need updating to account for this new right.

📋Illinois Employers, have you made sure to display the notice about the New Illinois Paid Leave for all Workers Act for your employees? Additionally, have you included the policy in your employee handbook? It's important to ensure compliance with the new law. The Paid Leave for All Workers Act is a new law that took effect in Illinois on January 1, 2024. The law requires most Illinois employers to provide employees with a minimum of 40 hours of paid leave during each 12-month period. The law applies to every employee working for an employer in Illinois, with some exceptions. I've created a "10 Types of Employees Not Covered Under the Act List". Message me for a list of employees who are likely not covered under the Act. *****Not legal advice.****** *Employees are entitled to begin using the accrued paid leave after 90 days. This means the first day employees could take off time that has accrued since January 1, 2024 would be March 31, 2024. 😀 I'm excited to help employees and corporate employers with this law. Why am I so passionate about this new 2024 Illinois law? Leave from work is why I practice employment law. I once took a medical leave from a job, and they punished me for it. I fought back by hiring an employment attorney - and then I got my law license and became an employment lawyer. 👑 Other resources: 🔖 VIDEO TRAINING: ISBA Illinois Paid Leave Essentials: What You Need to Know (produced December 2023): https://lnkd.in/gu3-J33q 🔖 IDOL LIVE WEBINARS (WEBEX): January 11 and January 25 - https://lnkd.in/gNmUFHEn #illinoislawyer #paidleave #newlaw #illinois #illinoisjobs
