Maternity leave laws in the state of New York are primarily determined by the federal government
. The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 governs when an employee may leave work to care for a newborn child and what benefits are extended by an employer during this time. An employer can offer additional maternity leave benefits to an employee, but no existing law requires it.The Family Medical Leave Act, requires all United States employers to provide leave and benefits
for its employees for maternity leave. This includes mothers giving birth, fathers who want to be home for the childbirth and couples adopting children. Individual states have been able to implement their own laws adding to this act, and New York features a few variations on the national law.Photo: Fabio Verani
