Palm Beach County To Offer Gay Partner Benefits
http://www.365gay.com/newscon05/10/101805palmBeach.htm

The Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners voted unanimously Tuesday to offer the same employee benefits to its current and retired employees with domestic partners as it offers to married employees and retirees.

The move makes the county one of only a handful of municipalities in Florida to offer domestic partner benefits to its workers.

The plan will go into effect on January 1. It will provide sick leave benefits, bereavement leave, long term disability, as well as health, dental vision, and life insurance. Dependent children on an employee’s domestic partner would also be eligible for insurance coverage.
