(Undated) — Workers in Illinois will begin earning paid time off in the New Year. Governor, JB Pritzker, signed legislation in March that allows workers to earn up to forty hours of paid leave in twelve months. Workers will be paid their full wage while on leave and tipped workers will be paid the minimum wage in their respective locale. Illinois is the third state in the nation and first in the Midwest to mandate paid leave. Those making minimum wage will also see an increase beginning in 2024. The new required minimum wage will be $14 an hour before increasing to $15 an hour in 2025.
