Aflac Inc. on Thursday said it was selected to serve as the
claims administrator for the recently established Connecticut Paid
Leave Authority.
The authority said Connecticut passed legislation "to create
this comprehensive paid family and medical leave insurance program"
and its mission is to "provide employees pathways to accessible
paid family leave benefits."
Aflac said it would accept applications, determine eligibility,
and administer benefits for paid leave. The company also said it
plans to open new offices in Windsor in the state, and locate about
150 jobs there.
Aflac said it was selected through a competitive bidding
process.
