About NH PFML and Getting a Quote
NH PFML insurance is available to all NH employers and NH workers. NHPFML provides covered NH workers with up to 60% wage replacement for up to 6 weeks per year for absences from work for covered common life events. NH PFML insurance can be purchased from MetLife, the state’s NH PFML partner. NH employers that purchase NH PFML from MetLife are eligible for a BET tax credit of up to 50% of the premium they pay on behalf of their workers. Beginning this month, employers can contact MetLife for a NH PFML insurance policy quote and may purchase coverage for their workers at any time.
If an employer does not offer NH PFML or equivalent coverage, workers can decide to purchase a NH PFML individual plan for themselves during an open enrollment period. Open Enrollment for the NH PFML individual plan for 2023 coverage will be held from 1/1/23-3/2/23. Open Enrollment for 2024 coverage will take place in the Fall of 2023.
The withholding of applicable premium deductions from employee pay and payment submission to MetLife is required of large employers (50+ employees) whether a worker is covered under an employer-sponsored plan or through an individual plan.
