FAMLI’s first chapters of proposed regulations are published
We are pleased to announce that Chapters 1, 2, 3, and 5 of the
proposed regulations for Maryland’s forthcoming Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) system are now published in the Maryland Register. Chapter 4 is awaiting publication by the Maryland Register, and we anticipate it will be published in the coming weeks. This additional Chapter will be published here when it is available for public comment.
Regulations are the rules for the FAMLI system. Before writing the regulations, we hosted 9 informal engagement sessions, released 12 discussion documents, shared 2 drafts of regulations, and heard from Maryland employers and workers during more than 85 public presentations. The proposed regulations incorporate the feedback we heard to meet the needs of workers and employers in Maryland.
Please email written comments to [email protected] by November 17, 2025.
To support your understanding of the regulations, we are also providing the answers to the most frequently asked questions, especially those from employers.
