Comment on 66% of Americans say they want extended European-style vacation policies at work
Malfeasant@lemm.ee 1 year agoThat’s still way better than what we get… My wife got 4 months paid maternity leave when our daughter was born, and she works for a big bank, so better benefits than a lot of people.

You have FMLA, which guarantees that you won’t be fired (once approved) for 12 weeks. The first part uses your vacation days (because, apparently, being out on maternity is a vacation and you won’t need anymore days once you’re back), the rest of it is unpaid. Once 12 weeks rolls around, you either come back or get fired.
