Employees, annual leave to attend school related activities authorized

Summary

The Parental Right to Participate in Schools Act gives employees who are parents or guardians the right to take up to 48 hours of leave each year for school‑related events. Employers may refuse only if the leave would cause a substantial disruption, and they must post a notice about the law in the workplace. Violations can be reported to the Alabama Department of Workforce, which may fine employers up to $100 per day for missing the required notice.
