That's why parental leave should apply to both parents/all genders. I believe one of the Nordic countries has a law on the books that gives a fixed period of time per child and parents can split it between parents as they wish.
- fastbeef 8y agoIt’s been in place since the late 70’s. 480 days per kid, each parent had ~20% earmarked and the rest is up to the parents to divide up.
- alkonaut 8y agoSweden has 480 days to share (part of that is with lower pay), but 90 days for each parent cannot be transferred so the minimum for dads is effectively 3 months per child. This has had great effect. If you are going to leave work for 3 months you can just as well do 6 or 12 with little difference to the employer.
