This map isn’t worth a discussion. I seriously doubt that countries such as Sudan, Bangladesh, and Cambodia have a paid paternity leave. If so, it isn’t worth the paper it’s written upon. In those countries the government shit on worker rights.

This seems to be correct. Sudan, surprisingly does offer paid leave however other countries in Africa, like Zambia, do not offer paid but do offer unpaid (like the US on a Federal level). Map is, indeed, worthless.

Still I doubt those „rights“ are exercised.

It also doesn't separate states in the US, where they could actually have paid paternity leave. Such as California. Shit that it's not at a federal level, sure, but it also isn't like you don't get it anywhere in the country.

Up to 12 weeks unpaid, job-protected leave for mothers and fathers. You can get some kind of partial payback for lost wages, but I'm not sure how that works.

If it is unpaid that's just federal law.

I saw in another comment it was actually paid. I guess I will need do my own DD lol
