Dubai: 70-day paid maternity leave for women in this company - News | Khaleej Times
khaleejtimes.com/uae/dubai-70-day-paid-maternity-leave-for-women-in-this-company
Quick Glance: New Maternity Leave Policy Introduced by Leading Dubai Company
- A prominent company in Dubai has recently introduced an innovative 70-day paid maternity leave policy. Effective from February 2024, this initiative aims to enhance the well-being of its female employees.
- By extending maternity leave to 70 fully paid days, the company aims to provide mothers with extra time to recuperate, form strong bonds with their infants, and strengthen family life.
- Joining the ranks of other local firms offering flexible work hours and extended maternity leaves, this company prioritizes employee satisfaction and work-life balance.
- In the UAE, standard maternity leave usually spans 45 calendar days, with federal government employees enjoying a 60-day break. Furthermore, new mothers are granted two 30-minute breastfeeding breaks until their child reaches 2 years of age.
