The CT Paid Leave Authority is aware of the cybersecurity incident announced by our claims administrator, Aflac, on June 20, 2025. Based on the investigation thus far, there is no indication that CT Paid Leave data has been impacted by the incident. We are working closely with Aflac to confirm that none of the CT Paid Leave customer data was affected. If we learn that there is any impact to CT Paid Leave data, we will be sure to inform the public and our customers as soon as possible.

CT Paid Leave Is About People

People who are no longer forced to choose between their own healing or putting food on their table, and being a caregiver for their loved ones or paying the electric bill.

CT Paid Leave Is About Workplaces

Workplaces that are strengthened by the ability of employers of all sizes to give workers access to paid leave, helping with both recruitment and retention and making their organizations more competitive.
