Webinar | 2025  

State-leave paid family and medical programs are reshaping the national landscape, creating a complex and dynamic policy environment for personnel leaders. As more states implement or expand their own programs, understanding these variations can help state HR and personnel leaders identify best practices, track emerging models, and explore opportunities for policy innovation.

Developed specifically for NASPE members, during this webinar, DMEC will offer an overview of the national leave law landscape, highlighting the key areas state HR executives should monitor to stay ahead of compliance requirements and workforce planning challenges.

The session will also explore emerging trends and forward-looking strategies, including: Interagency leave coordination and best practices; Stay-at-work/return-to-work policies that support workforce engagement and well-being;

The intersection of leave and mental health policy; and How artificial intelligence is beginning to shape the future of leave and accommodation management.

Join us for this timely discussion as we examine the future of leave policy —and how state personnel leaders can prepare to navigate its evolving landscape.
