Bill > S559

This bill directs the Legislative Research Commission (LRC), a legislative study group in North Carolina, to conduct a comprehensive examination of bereavement leave policies for state employees. The LRC will analyze data provided by the Office of State Human Resources to assess the current state of bereavement leave and determine if improvements or new policies are needed. To support this study, the bill allocates $50,000 from the General Fund for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. The LRC is required to compile its findings and develop potential legislative recommendations, which will be presented to the 2025 General Assembly during its 2026 Regular Session. The bill will officially take effect on July 1, 2025, providing a clear timeline for the study's implementation and potential future policy changes related to state employee bereavement leave.
