Paid leave matters:

Among women who needed time off but didn't take it,
~1/2 of those without #PaidLeave needed the time off for their own health care
~1/4 of those without paid leave didn't take the time off because they couldn't afford to.

Why is paid leave so important? For Christina Hayes, volunteer for Mothering Justice, access to #PaidLeave is essential for managing her lupus and caring for her daughter, without having to worry about whether she will be able to pay the bills.

The U.S. is the only OECD country without a national paid leave policy. It’s time for policies that reflect the realities of working families and fuel economic growth. #PaidLeaveWorks #PaidLeave

Evidence points to 26 weeks as optimal for some #mothers and their babies. However, policies that allow more than 6 months for mothers only, and do not permit the same to fathers, appear to exacerbate the gender divide in terms of #career progression https://t.co/jf7KWKKj4X

While most organizations spend heavily on onboarding programs for newcomers and graduate recruits, we found that almost none pay the same level of attention to reintegrating employees after #parentalleave https://t.co/jf7KWKKj4X

[Haley Hoffman @itme_haley]

The ability to take #parentalleave without diminishing #promotion, pay, or #leadership prospects is crucial for greater #genderequality in the workplace and for helping all working parents, and in particular #mothers, achieve greater work-life balance https://t.co/bwdl5bwomE
