As you know, I’m passionate about paid maternity leave for working Australian women. I was pleased to hear the latest Report from the Productivity Commission, calling for a 20 week paid maternity leave plan (includes 2 weeks Paternity leave).
If you’re still not convinced on the benefits of paid maternity leave take a look at this video Real women, Real Stories. Everyday women discuss their leave experiences. What I found really interesting was the impact of an early return to work on breastfeeding.
