» June marks LGBTQI Pride Month, celebrating people who are "lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex". I think most of us agree with US President Joe Biden's declaration that LGBTQI people are loved and cherished, and they deserve "dignity, respect and support".
Making parental leave work
Oped, Jon Åström Gröndahl, Published on 09/06/2022
» Sweden was the first country in the world to introduce paid parental leave to both mothers and fathers, doing so as early as 1974. Parents in Sweden are entitled to 480 days of paid parental leave when a child is born or adopted. Of these, 390 days can be distributed as parents see fit, allowing for flexible use until the child is eight years old.
