CHILD CARE LEAVE FOR FEMALE EMPLOYEES

On similar grounds, the paternity leave should have been increased. Are we not taking up the responsibility / work relating to children. By denying any such concessional leave for male members, don”t you think that their spouses will also suffer. They may be either employed / house wives. The housewives are discriminated vis a vis working women, in this way.
The husbands if they are given proper leave facility, can be of great help to women who are working at home. The working woman need not always mean that they are working for salary outside home. Somebody who is slogging for the entire day without break and leave should be considered in the right perspective.
To stretch the same logic, even the grand parents who are still working need to be rewarded with leave facility so that they can contribute their experience in upbringing of young lads.
Let the Employees Association think seriously on these topics.

A different perspective to the problem. May be child care leave can a cumulative of 2 years distributed between parents and grandparents.
