Quick Glance: 2023 Election: Labour's Offer - Four Weeks' Paid Leave for Partners

Prime Minister and Labour leader Chris Hipkins is announcing a new policy today in Wellington to secure Labour a third term. The aim is to ease the financial burden for partners after the birth of a child and help the main carer.

The leave can be taken concurrently or consecutively with paid parental leave, giving families the option of having both parents at home or having at least one parent on paid leave for up to 30 weeks.

It will also be available for working partners where the main carer was not eligible for paid parental leave.

The government will fully fund the leave, with costs estimated at $35 million in the first year. Costs will increase to $70-$75 million per year when the full four weeks is being paid.
