The Massachusetts Department of Family and Medical Leave (DFML) has created a new Leave Allotment View for Leave Administrators. A leave allotment page has been added to the employer portal to provide further insight into each employee’s leave details, including the amount of leave an employee has taken and how much they may be eligible for in their current benefit year. The leave allotment view allows Leave Administrators to access the leave allotment view from the applications tab in the employer portal by selecting the “View leave allotment” hyperlink below the employee’s name.
The DFML has also established new prepaid debit cards. Employees can now choose to receive approved PFML benefits on a U.S. Bank ReliaCard®, which is a prepaid Visa® debit card. Learn more about payment options and how PFML payments work.
