What it does
The SAFE for Survivors Act of 2026 aims to promote the economic security and safety of survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking by expanding workplace protections and benefits. It would entitle survivors to take safe leave for addressing qualifying acts of violence, prohibit discrimination in employment and insurance based on survivor status, and provide access to unemployment compensation and insurance protections. The bill also reauthorizes grants for workplace response programs and requires regulations to enforce these provisions, affecting survivors, employers, insurers, and federal agencies administering related programs.
