Summary

The legislation revises Minnesota’s paid‑leave law to clarify which workers are considered “covered employment.” It removes self‑employed people, independent contractors, seasonal employees, substitute employees and retirees covered by a specific reemployment rule from the paid‑leave mandate. The changes also add definitions for “part‑year employment” and “substitute employee” and set rules for how they may use accrued leave.
