New PFL & SDI Brochures Issued by EDD

The EDD Has Updated the Brochures for Paid Family Leave and Disability Insurance Provisions

The California Employment Development Department (EDD) has updated two of the brochures that California employers are required to provide employees when appropriate.

The first brochure is the Paid Family Leave (DE 2511) brochure, which employers must provide to newly hired employees and to each employee who is taking time off work to care for a seriously ill family member or bond with a new child. The new brochure can be accessed here.

The second brochure is the Disability Insurance Provisions (DE 2515) brochure, which employers must provide to newly hired employees and to each employee who is unable to work due to a non-work related illness, injury, pregnancy, or disability. The new brochure can be accessed here.

Employers should begin using these updated brochures immediately as both of these brochures went into effect in March 2019.
