- GordonS 8y agoEU bloke here (well, for now, pending Brexit...) - do you have any more info on this? I think last time I took paternity leave it was only 2 weeks on full pay, and a further 2 weeks on half pay. Is the 2 months you mention on full pay?
- dependsontheq 8y agoNo it’s still decided on a country level, sounds like the German law.
- erk__ 8y agoThe directive is quite new, they first reached an agreement in janurary so it is not implemented yet. https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/press/press-releases/2019/01/24/better-work-life-balance-for-eu-citizens-presidency-reaches-provisional-agreement-with-the-european-parliament/ https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/press/press-releases/2019...
