Entitles employees 45 years of age or older to take one day every ten years to undergo a colonoscopy

This bill (A 479, "45 saves lives") requires employers with 20+ employees to provide one paid day off every ten years for workers aged 45 or older to get a colonoscopy. It applies to employees working 20+ hours weekly (excluding independent contractors) and prohibits retaliation for using this leave. Employers must grant the leave without affecting other existing benefits, and the law takes effect 90 days after enactment. The policy directly supports workplace health screenings for a common preventive care need.
