Did you know residents in every town in the state have applied for CT Paid Leave? Approximately 66,000 workers in Connecticut have received over $375 million in benefits when they were unable to work due to qualifying health or family reasons.
In 2019, the legislature passed and Governor Ned Lamont signed Public Act 19-25 into law, creating CT Paid Leave. Employee payroll contributions began in 2021. One year later, on January 1, 2022, benefit programs began for qualified applicants.
Families in Connecticut shouldn't have to worry about whether they can balance taking care of family needs or paying the bills. With this program, both can happen, as it offers partial income replacement benefits.
