New article by Vincent Ramos analyses #parentalleave provisions in the population of collective agreements in the #philippines. A policy reform did not induce short-term crowding-out effects + redundancy functionally raises the costs of non-compliance.

If govt policymakers want their citizens to have more kids
Then:
Accessible #Healthcare
Secure #Housing
#Daycare
#ParentalLeave (both parents)
Sane #workCulture
Quality #Education
EtcIn the #USA #MAGA's desire for more kids seems to have found its policy in "make them poor uneducated and desperate and get rid of #sexEd #abortion #contraception and #womensRights"
I suppose they have a point because neglected unloved kids are future MAGA

How UK paternity leave compares to the rest of Europe.
Most dads in the UK get two weeks of leave when their baby is born - but new fathers in many other countries get more.
BBC News spoke to dads in different countries about how much time they can take off work after the birth of their children - and how that's changed fatherhood for them.

One of the happiest periods of my life has been taking parental/paternal leave when my son was born and I had our three year-old daughter.
If you have the opportunity to do this, do it. If you have the ability to advocate for your workplace to have this, do it.

Here’s why #HewlettPackardEnterprise expanded its paid #parentalleave policy and never looked back
#IT giant #HPE expanded its parental leave policy in 2019 as part of a larger push to improve #employee benefits, and says it has paid off in terms of worker engagement and satisfaction
When a team member believes, and is not just told, HPE cares about them as a whole person, they’re more engaged, more productive, and better able to contribute their talents to our business.”

> [T]he incentives created by the earmarking policies seem to work, as fathers tend to increase their uptake of paternity leave, while mothers tend to increase their labor supply during their child’s first year of life. However, such effects are heterogeneous, depending on the policy design and the underlying couple characteristics. Designs that impose strong constraints on household choices seem to have adverse effects on low-income or low-education households, reducing mothers’ earnings, triggering couple dissolution, and negatively affecting children’s GPA. [...]
> Second, there is no strong support in the data for the argument, popular in the public opinion and among policy makers, that paternity leave improves the balance of childcare duties within a couple and that it ultimately enhances women’s labor market position. However, [...] Sweden is one of the countries with the lowest documented child penalty in employment and earnings (see the child penalty atlas), and it is unlikely that policy played no role in narrowing gender gaps among parents. Consistently, recent evidence suggests that earmarking has improved gender attitudes in the next generation, making men less likely to hold stereotypical views about gender roles in society.

When Statues Become Fathers: Creative Street Art on Equal Parenting
What happens when male statues become fathers for a day? A creative campaign in Sweden is challenging traditional norms about parenting roles.
Imagine a bronze statue of a stoic leader, now wearing a bright pink baby sling with a doll nestled inside. On International Men’s Day, November 19th, male statues across Sweden were adorned with baby slings and carriers as part of a unique campaign to spotlight unequal parenting responsibilities.
Traditionally representing power, labor, or other masculine attributes, these statues were reimagined to symbolize fathers as caregivers. The campaign, organized by the think tank Arena Idé, is part of the #kvantitetstidspappan initiative, aimed at encouraging fathers to spend more time with their children and urging employers to play a larger role in enabling this.
Despite Sweden’s globally recognized parental leave policies, significant disparities remain. Swedish fathers take only 30.9% of parental leave days and 38% of sick leave to care for children.
A recent Novus survey, conducted in collaboration with Make Equal, further reveals that expectations around parental leave remain unequal in Swedish workplaces. Through this campaign, Arena Idé hopes to challenge these norms and has proposed an employer bonus for workplaces that encourage an equal division of parental leave.
The statues involved in the campaign—such as Standing Man in Umeå, Det svenska tungsinnet in Malmö, and Hjalmar Branting in Stockholm—were decorated with dolls in baby slings and carriers.
This created a contrast between the statues’ traditional symbolism and the modern role of engaged fathers.
The initiative draws inspiration from the UK-based group The Dad Shift, which earlier this year launched a similar campaign highlighting gaps in Britain’s parental leave policies.
Vilgot Österlund, a statistician at Arena Idé, emphasizes the importance of changing workplace norms: “When discussing gender equality in workplaces, the focus is often on women and the negative consequences of inequality for them. But here, we see that men are also losing out on something invaluable—time with their children. Through the statue campaign, the new statistics, and our proposals, we hope to make this clearer!”
Read more about the campaign and the proposed reforms in the original article by Arena Idé: Link to the original article.

Pregnant women and workers with children are often unfairly treated in Australian workplaces (as they are in the US), despite laws to protect against workplace discrimination there, according to a recent study.
A survey by researchers found most of the 1,200+ pregnant and parent-worker respondents experienced discrimination during their return-to-work phase, parental leave, and while pregnant at work (via The Conversation AU/NZ).

spaghetti bolognese for kids is such a double edged sword. on one hand, they LOVE it. nutrition! sneaking in veggies! on the other hand, their seats are a MESS afterwards. a proper scene of battle. cleaning it up just makes me want to blast out the entire kitchen and start over 🙂↔️

After two weeks of a four month parental leave it has been somewhat surprising the number of negative and misogynistic comments from other men; the idea that you are less of a man because you have chosen to take time off work and raise your son. If ever the world needed more positive male role models, now is it.

It’s kind of mind blowing the responses you get when you tell people you are taking over the parental leave and your wife is going back to work. Mums are almost treated like they must not love their child whilst dads are lauded like some remarkable mythical superhero. Sort of shows how antiquated the UK’s views, and approaches, to parenting still are. It really shouldn’t be that unusual for parents to both want to spend time raising their child!
