From the state website: “Municipalities, districts, political subdivisions, housing authorities, regional school districts, and regional planning commissions are types of employers that are not eligible for PFML coverage but may opt in through a vote of their governing body or committee.”

I asked my CEO (who doubles as head of HR) if it would be possible to bring to our board for an opt-in vote. They refused saying we offer sick time. However sick time is not the same as a maternity leave or medical leave policy so I’m not sure about her logic.

Non profits are exempt (they can opt in if they want to).
