*SMLR-Net, the source of selected news on labor and employment relations and Human resource management* Title: How Paid Leave Policies Can Help Small Businesses Author: Adam Uzialko Source: Business News Dialy Date: Jan 26, 2018 *Summary: *Karen White, director of policy analysis and community engagement for the Rutgers Center for Women and Work <https://smlr.rutgers.edu/content/center-women-work-cww> at the School of Management and Labor Relations, said that five states currently offer a temporary disability insurance program that can be expanded to support paid family leave. New Jersey's paid family leave policy requires a mere 0.1-percent deduction from workers' paychecks up to the first $33,700 in pay to support itself. That means the maximum deduction from each employee amounts to a lowly $33.70 annually. *Link*: http://bit.ly/2BGua2a ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Eugene McElroy, Library Associate James Carey Library, School of Management and Labor Relations Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey 50 Labor Center Way, New Brunswick NJ 08901 848-932-9513 smlrlibrary(a)work.rutgers.edu http://smlr.rutgers.edu/carey-library
