Minnesota Paid Leave Employer Engagement Session: Dakota County

Paid Leave is coming to Minnesota. Is your business ready?

Starting Jan. 1, 2026, Minnesota Paid Leave will provide payments and job protections to Minnesotans when they need time off for some of life's most important moments - like welcoming a child, recovering from a serious illness, or caring for a loved one. As an employer, you plan an important role in helping your employees learn about and access the program.

Minnesota Paid Leave staff are partnering with local chambers of commerce to hold a series of in-person engagement sessions for employers. At these sessions, we will provide an overview of the program, share recent updates, answer your questions, and help you prepare to meet your responsibilities under Paid Leave.
