The Arch presentation will help navigate the paid family and medical leave requirements being adopted across the United States, with special focus on Oregon, Colorado and Maryland.

Arch Insurance, a provider of short-term disability insurance and paid family and medical leave (PFML) coverage, has teamed up with the Disability Management Employer Coalition (DMEC) to present a webinar that reviews PFML requirements in the United States.

The presentation, “An Updated Look at State PFML,” will be presented online at noon ET on Wednesday, March 15. Arch’s team of disability specialists will provide an overview of current PFML laws, as well as a deeper look into states such as Oregon, Colorado and Maryland, which are in various stages of implementing PFML laws.

Webinar attendees will gain understanding of current PFML requirements, as well as a review of private plan options outside of state-run programs.

“Several states are launching new PFML programs this year. Benefits will become available in Oregon and Colorado, while Maryland is going to start funding to support the launch of benefits in 2025,” says Thomas Foschino, Vice President of Accident & Health at Arch Insurance. “With so many changes, it can be difficult for employers with workers in several states to keep up. We want to use this opportunity to help explain various state plans and how they may affect both employees and employers.”
