AI Summary
This bill directs the Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI), a state agency responsible for enforcing labor laws, to conduct a comprehensive study on unpaid, job-protected leave. Specifically, BOLI will investigate and analyze existing laws related to leave policies that guarantee workers can take time off without risking their employment. The agency is required to submit a report to the Oregon Legislative Assembly's interim committees focused on business and labor by September 15, 2026. The report may include recommendations for potential legislative changes and will be prepared according to standard state reporting procedures. The bill includes a sunset provision, meaning the study mandate will automatically expire on January 2, 2027, ensuring the research is time-limited and focused. This approach allows policymakers to gain insights into current leave policies and potential gaps or improvements in protecting workers' job security during periods of unpaid leave.
