HB 3962 — Summary (Introduced 2025)

Main purpose and intent

HB 3962 makes a technical amendment to the Paid Leave for All Workers Act (codified at 820 ILCS 192). The bill changes the short-title provision in Section 1 of the Act. It is a non-substantive, clerical correction intended to fix the statutory language of the Act’s short title.

Key provisions / changes

  • Amends 820 ILCS 192/1 (Short title).
  • New text (as introduced) reads: “Sec. 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the the Paid Leave for All Workers Act.” (the change appears to be limited to wording in the short-title section).
  • No changes are made to substantive rights, obligations, definitions, coverage, leave accrual, or enforcement provisions of the Paid Leave for All Workers Act.

Who / what is affected

  • Practically none: the bill does not alter employee leave benefits, employer obligations, enforcement mechanisms, or funding.
  • The change is procedural/typographical and affects only the statutory phrasing used for citation and reference to the Act (legal drafters, codifiers, and publishers).

Notes and implications

  • The bill appears to be a clerical/technical correction only and does not change the policy or implementation of paid leave under Illinois law.
  • The introduced text does not specify an effective date; if enacted, the effective date would follow the General Assembly’s default timing or any date specified in the enacted language.
