What is it?+
Parental leave is an optional period of time off work available to parents, allowing them time to care for their child during the first years of the child's life and fulfil their emotional and social needs.
Who is it aimed at?+
Parental leave is due subject to the condition of self-employed workers having made the payment of contributions for the month preceding the one in which the leave begins (or a part of it) and that there is an actual abstention from the work activities.
How does it work?+
For self-employed workers parental leave is due for a maximum of three months within the first year of the child's life.
For pre-adoptive placements and fostering, regardless of whether national or international, parental leave can be granted for a maximum period of three months within the first year of the date that the minor entered into the family.
In the case of childbirth, adoption or multiple custody the right to parental leave is provided for each child under the conditions stated above.
Compensation paid is equal to 30% of the conventional remuneration envisaged for the year in which the leave begins.
