How Does a Massachusetts Paid Family and Medical Leave Contributions Bond Work? 

A paid leave contributions bond creates a legal contract between these three parties: 

  1. Principal: You, the employer or covered business entity owner filing the bond
  2. Obligee: The Massachusetts DFML requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

This holds you financially responsible for upholding the provisions of Massachusetts General Laws 458 CMR 2.00. 

If you fail to pay benefits or misuse private plan trust funds, the bond can be used to reimburse harmed individuals in a timely manner. However, you ultimately have to refund the surety. 

How Do I Renew My Bond?

These bonds expire every two years. To receive a new paid leave contributions bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted. 

We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
