Beginning in 2026, Minnesota’s new Paid Family and Medical Leave program will provide nearly all workers in the state with paid time off to manage significant life events—including personal illness, family caregiving, or bonding with a new child. But what does this mean for ambulance services operating 24/7 staffing schedules?
Join us for a timely webinar tailored to ground ambulance providers to unpack how this new law will impact your organization. We’ll cover eligibility and employer responsibilities, discuss what you can do to prepare now, and explore implications for scheduling, staffing, and internal policy development. Attendees will also gain insight into DEED’s implementation timeline and learn how to communicate these changes with their workforce effectively.
Key Topics:
- Overview of Minnesota’s Paid Family and Medical Leave law
- Eligibility and benefits for EMS employees
- Employer obligations and payroll contributions
- Anticipated operational and workforce challenges
- Best practices for policy planning and communication
- Resources and timelines from the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED)
Whether you’re an EMS leader, HR administrator, or finance manager, this session will provide actionable insights to help your service navigate the road ahead.
