We are currently re-vamping our Paid Maternity Leave Policy. We currently offer two weeks of pay when employees take leave after birth. I'd be interested in what other companies do: more paid time, less, ??. Also, while our current policy does not specify, the question has been raised whether men or adoptive parents qualify for the benefit, as opposed to post-partum mothers only. Any thoughts on that?
We have a Parental Leave Policy that allows 160 hrs, 4 weeks, of paid leave to either parent. The leave is good for a natural or adoptive parent.
