Grants family leave benefits to persons who perform artistic and cultural work

Summary

The proposal amends the workers' compensation law so that employees who perform artistic and cultural work—such as performers, designers, technicians, and front‑of‑house staff in live productions—qualify for paid family leave. Eligibility follows the same 26‑week employment rule used for construction workers. The change seeks to give arts‑sector employees the same leave protections as other covered workers.
