City of Dallas Paid Leave
Paid Parental Leave (PPL)
We are proud to announce an exciting new benefit in conjunction with Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) leave for City of Dallas employees expecting a newborn, newly adopted, or newly placed child — Paid Parental Leave.
On or after October 1, 2021, full or part-time City of Dallas employees who have given birth, need to care for, adopted, or received placement of a child age twelve or younger may be eligible to receive up to six weeks paid leave to help support the new addition to their family.
Paid Parental Leave runs concurrently with FMLA leave. City of Dallas employees must be eligible for FMLA leave before they can be approved for Paid Parental Leave.
