Spain menstrual leave: New bill aims to grant paid leave to women with severe pain • FRANCE 24

I respect the need. I don’t think it should be a gendered carve out though. It should be more broadly available medical leave to all. It should be individually evaluated.

Men have 6x more workplace injuries because of the jobs they do and the tasks that they are assigned in the same position. Many get little sympathy so they go on full disability

Spain has evolved regarding women basic rights ,a major move that will attract more employment there . . well done 👍🎉💓🙏

Well, this is much better then the revoke of Roe vs Wade!

Yes... PLEASE LET THEM STAY HOME...PAY Them too.. Give them whateverthey want... Work is TORTURE DEALING With Women when they're on their Period! ... 😆

in a year we will see the news
90% of Spanish women are unemployed

It sounds good but in most cases in Europe it already is covered by the regular sick leave. But i guess they aren't finished on the left with token laws.

When you are in severe pain you go on sick leave , your gender is irrelevant regarding pain.

My issue with this is that men then will have to pay for something that they will never be able to receive the benefits of themselves, and generally, women already take more out of a state's coffers than that they put in. So I think this would be fine, but only as long as women themselves pay for it. For example, a small tax on their income (let's call it a menstrual tax) which could go to a state-wide fund , very similar to how an insurance operates.

Indonesia and South Korea already do this?

I live in the US and I was teacher for 25 years and always missed 1or 2 days a month. It was horrible! We were allotted 2 sick days a month- thank goodness!

Another reason why employers will employ men basically women can now work 3weeks and get paid as a man that works 4🤔 this might backfire

I want leave for blue balls.

Absurd

Now these are country's that work

Painkiller pharma lobby will be upset.

It'll be from rare to all women, then women will sue employers for discrimination because employers obviously would choose men over women especially if they have to pay them the same

That's cool. I don't think everyone needs it but there are definitely those who do.

They should just get a week off a month

Left wing government go figure

No because then any person can claim they are hurting very bad and get paid I don’t agree
