Honoring Family-Friendly Workplaces Act

This bill would require the Secretary of Labor to create a national program that certifies employers as "family-friendly." To qualify, an employer would have to offer several policies, including at least 12 weeks of paid family leave per year, paid sick days separate from other paid time off, help with fertility or adoption services, child care subsidies or infant-at-work policies, flexible hours for returning parents, and lactation support. Employers would apply to the Secretary, who would review applications and award certification to those that meet the requirements. The bill authorizes whatever funding is necessary to run the program.
