I live in HK and heard in the news that US citizens do not have paid maternity leave? Is that true. At least you get partial pay, right? For how many weeks?
點會冇產假?新聞完全誤導,美國呢度有The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA),連男人都可以申請,的確每一個州嘅法例都有少少分別,長短都有D唔同,有D僱主會俾更多假期,大前提係僱員最少喺公司工作超過一年,而假期收入由零至全薪不等,如公司冇工資,員工放假期間可以申請政府救濟,大概係之前人工一半。
After working one year for xxxxxxxxxx, employees can take up to 16 weeks of paid maternity, paternity and adoption leave. Our parental leave gives employees the flexibility to take time when it works for their family, within 12 months after a new child arrives.
