Summary
Ohio House Bill 869 establishes a family and medical leave insurance program in Ohio. This program would provide wage replacement benefits to workers who need to take time off for family or medical reasons, such as childbirth, caring for a sick family member, or recovering from a serious health condition. The bill creates a new insurance program framework through multiple new code sections. It amends tax law to accommodate the program's implementation, establishing how the insurance system would operate and workers would access benefits.
