AI Summary

This bill aims to promote equity for employees who take leave for the birth, adoption, or placement of a foster child. It proposes to amend the existing law by adding a new paragraph that states the time taken for family or medical leave in these situations shall be counted as credible service for employees of the Commonwealth, its Political Subdivisions or Authorities. This means the time taken for such leave will be considered when calculating seniority, step anniversary, vacation milestones, and longevity for these employees.
