Reduced Paid Family Medical Leave Contributions for 2023 in Massachusetts

Reduced Paid Family Medical Leave Contributions for 2023 in Massachusetts

Massachusetts requires employers to remit employer and employee contributions to subsidize the State’s paid family medical leave program benefits. This year the combined contribution amount drops slightly from 0.68% of wages to 0.63% of wages for employers with at least 25 employees, and employers will need to provide updated employee rights notifications to their Massachusetts workforce as part of this change using the State’s model form (available here) or equivalent. We will be remitting the updated reduced rate on behalf of production company employers as of the January 1, 2023 start date.
