Remember that this benefit is available to most private employees. For full-time workers (20 or more hours per week), you’re eligible after 26 consecutive weeks of employment. Part-time workers (those who work less than 20 hours weekly) qualify for paid family leave after working 175 days, regardless of whether or not those days are consecutive. Workers are eligible regardless of their immigration and/or citizenship status.
