Overview

It is the policy of the City of Minneapolis to provide eligible employees with up to twelve weeks of paid parental leave. The leave will run concurrently with any other leaves available under existing federal and state laws. The entire paid parental leave allotment must be requested and used within twelve months of the qualifying event, otherwise the opportunity to request and/or use the leave will be forfeited.
