Overview
In 2025, the Vermont Department of Labor announced a mandatory change to its Family & Parental Leave posting. The update expands information about eligibility, covered employers, and the types of leave employees may take. Employers meeting specific workforce thresholds must now provide a broader range of leave options, ensuring workers are aware of their rights and benefits.

What Changed
The updated posting outlines new requirements based on employer size and employee work hours:
- Employers with 10 or more employees working 30 hours or more per week must provide parental leave, bereavement leave, safe leave, and qualifying exigency leave.
- Employers with 15 or more employees working 30 hours or more per week must also offer family leave.
- Employees working 30 or more hours per week for at least one year are eligible for parental, bereavement, family, and qualifying exigency leave.
- Employees working 20 hours per week for at least six months are eligible for safe leave.
This change does not replace an existing posting but significantly expands eligibility criteria and clarifies the types of leave employers must provide.
