Comments on: Paid Maternity Leave In Australia http://planningwithkids.com/2008/10/03/paid-maternity-leave-in-australia/ 2 parents, 5 kids, organised chaos Tue, 22 May 2012 06:54:41 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: planningqueenhttp://planningwithkids.com/2008/10/03/paid-maternity-leave-in-australia/comment-page-1/#comment-9538 planningqueen Wed, 08 Jul 2009 03:42:58 +0000 http://planningwithkids.com/?p=525#comment-9538 Stephen - Some companies in Australia do offer paternity leave for father's. My husband had 5 days paid paternity leave after our last baby. I don't believe that we have an ideal system in Australia for Maternity / Paternity Leave Sweden is one country which provides generous parental leave: all working parents are entitled to 16 months paid leave per child, the cost being shared between employer and State. (Source: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parental_leave" rel="nofollow">Wikipedia</a>). I think that a system like this offers both parents more flexibility. I think it will however be a long time coming, if at all that we have anything like this in Australia. Stephen – Some companies in Australia do offer paternity leave for father’s.
