Topic	Did you know that Pregnant women get 1 YEAR Maternity Leave in Canada???
Ogurisama 06/30/18 11:35:36 AM #4:	streamofthesky posted... Something closer to the US's model than Canada's. 1 year paid leave is insane, and unfair to the other workers who now have to pick up the slack for the missing person for the same wage. (of course, in the US, they have to pick up the slack for the same wage even though the company's pocketing the money that would've gone to the mother on leave, which is pretty bs too) Probably 2-3 weeks paid leave for mothers and fathers at most, and then as much unpaid leave as they want (with protection from losing their job for the extended absence). Requiring the parent to inform the company of the length of unpaid absence up front is fair, too. So if it is going to be long, they know to hire a temp replacement. How it usually works is for that one year a temp is hired to replace her for the year. The person gets hired on knowing they are a temp for the year and once the year is over, the temp is usually let go (unless another position opens up, or the mother decides to quit in that year) Mat Leave is not time off, its to take care of your baby, any parent would know it isnt actually time off from work. --- http://cdn-android.apptap.com/img/870/mobi.colortrilogy.bitlink/267135850.png https://i.chzbgr.com/completestore/12/10/5/uv4r7nGyrE6ylt2lHGWpiQ2.gif <cite>Ogurisama posted [p:904242807] in Did you kn...
