PROSPERED Dataset: Parental leave
- Description:
- How many weeks of paid parental leave is available to parents of infants? Paid parental leave only includes leave that either parent of an infant can take, but it excludes child care leave, which is generally much longer in duration and either unpaid or paid at a lower rate. We report the leave available in weeks under normal conditions, excluding extended leave periods under extraordinary circumstances such as single parents. We always assume that parents met all the qualifying conditions to receive the leave (such as work tenure, payments into Social Security). Longitudinal data is available for every year between 1995 and 2016 for 193 UN Member States.
