My company does 12 weeks (for both mother and father), I think that is fair. If someone is gone for 12 weeks it is an annoyance but not a "place is going to burn down and take everyone else with it" thing. Any longer then that though...

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)


Yea, that doesn't work for skilled labor. In our company we have a policy that it takes 3 months to effectively train someone to do the job they are hired for. Plus that "temp" would legally be entitled to time and a half due to contract positions needing to be payed more then full time due to their temporary nature. So effectively we would be paying two and a half people and getting maybe half a person worth of work out of them. Not worth it in the least.
