Your country is f*cked, you couldn't pay me to live there. But you'd have a greater chance of running into Gaga "My name is Dita, I'll be your Mistress tonight..."

Some businesses may offer paid maternity leave or they'll allow it but it's unpaid. Men usually don't get it at all but I've had a few at work take it (we're a pretty liberal company anyway so they don't care). However, there's no national legal mandate saying business owners are required to extend paid maternity/paternity leave to workers. You can take it and it'll be unpaid but they won't necessarily fire you for taking it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,776 Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 That's amazing! This really helps engage women into the labor market (-> economic growth). Doing it for both mother and father equally ensures that males don't get a benefit in hiring. 6 weeks is a good start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump’s proposals would change that, but the six weeks of paid leave would still be much less than other industrialized countries."
