AI Summary

This bill amends the Code of Laws of South Carolina to provide twelve weeks of paid family leave for state employees due to the birth, adoption, or foster care of a child. The leave is granted with pay and does not count against the employee's annual or sick leave. The entitlement to this leave expires at the end of the twelve-month period beginning on the date of the birth or placement, and it does not accumulate for subsequent use if not used within that time frame.
