Maryland Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI)

FAMLI allows Maryland employees to take up to 12 weeks of paid leave per year (up to 24 weeks in specific cases) to care for themselves or family members, providing wage replacement and job protection.

Provides up to 12 weeks of paid leave (up to 24 weeks for two separate qualifying events, e.g., personal health and welcoming a child). Weekly benefits are capped at $1,000. Benefit calculation: 90% of average weekly wage (AWG) if AWG <= 65% of State Average Weekly Wage (SAWW); if higher, 90% of 65% of SAWW plus 50% of the remaining wages.
