Bill Summary

Relative to the small necessities leave act

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 52D of Chapter 149 of the General Laws in Massachusetts. The key change is to expand the definition of "family member" in the Small Necessities Leave Act to include not only blood or marital relatives, but also adoptive relatives of the employee. This allows employees to take leave to address the needs of a broader range of family members.
