Finland To Offer Moms And Dads The Same Amount Of Paid Parental Leave

Finland plans to reform its parental leave policy, offering equal paid leave to both parents. Fathers will receive nearly seven months of leave, matching mothers' leave under new guidelines. The reform aims to improve equality and support diverse families. Parents can take leave separately, totaling 14 months, with the option to transfer days to partners. Single parents receive the same leave duration. Women can use a month of leave before childbirth. Changes may start next year.
