Description |
This dataset captures whether women have a legislated right to paid maternity leave and/or parental leave. Longitudinal information on maternity leave policies includes whether paid leave was available for mothers to care for their infants, its length, and the rate at which wages were replaced. Length of leave was recorded in weeks without distinguishing between what portions of the leave have to be taken before and after the birth of the child. Scope: Longitudinal data is available for every year between 1995-2013 for the 121 countries that have been surveyed by either the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) or the Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS) at least once between those dates. |
