SUMMARY:Paid Family Medical Leave WEBINAR with PRO Resources
DESCRIPTION:Are You Ready for the New MN Paid Family & Medical Leave Law?\n\nStarting January 1\, 2026\, all MN employers must comply with the new PFML law. Learn how to stay compliant and protect your business in 2026. \n \n\nWhat You'll Learn\n\n\n	What PFML law requires starting in 2026\n	Key deadlines and employer responsibilities\n	Differences between the state plan and private plan options\n	How to control costs and avoid compliance headaches\n	How Pro Resources can manage PFML administration for you\n\n\n \n\n\nThis session will clarify what's changing\, what steps to take now\, and how to avoid penalties later.\n\n\n \n\nEvery registrant will receive our PFML Readiness Toolkit\, including:\n\n\n	\n	Employer action checklist\n	\n	\n	Employee communication template\n	\n	\n	State vs. private plan comparison chart\n	\n	\n	Key dates & compliance reminders\n\n	\n\n	Chamber members who are in MN or have employees in MN.  MN Paid Family Medical Leave will even impact ND and SD-based members that do work in MN.  The law was written with good intentions to protect employees with legitimate mental and physical health issues.   \n\n	 \n\n	For business owners\, PFML is one more thing to manage\, and it introduces three major challenges as follows:\n\n	 \n	\n	Time - Small business owners already feel burdened by regulations and compliance.  Rather than focusing on generating revenue\, small business operators are now forced to spend time learning about and maintaining PFML compliance.  \n	\n		Shameless Plug   PRO Resources offers PFML compliance services as part of our services offering. \n	\n	\n	Operations - The Federal leave rules exempt businesses with fewer than 50 employees.  The new Minnesota PFML mandates offer no exemption.  \n	\n		A small business with 10 employees could find itself in an awkward spot where it needs to hold multiple vacant positions.  Although these mental health and physical health issues are very real\, the impact on this 10-person operation could be significant.  It is possible one employee could take 40 weeks of paid time off while the employer is not able to fill their position   yikes!  \n	\n	\n	Cost   Small businesses are already operating on thin margins.  PFML is another tax on small businesses. \n	 PRO is hosting a Webinar on this topic and we would love to extend a free invitation to your Chamber members too.  \n\n	 \n\n	A link to the webinar and registration.
