Individuals who are less than 15 years old exempted from Minnesota Paid Leave Law.

This bill exempts individuals under 15 years old from Minnesota's Paid Leave Law requirements. It directly affects employers who hire workers younger than 15, removing them from the state's paid leave coverage mandates. The legislation amends Minnesota Statutes 268B.01 by adding language to exclude young workers from the definitions of "covered employment" and "employee" under the paid leave program. Employers of workers under 15 will no longer be required to provide paid leave benefits to these employees under this law.
