註釋Parental leave - as well as other forms of family leave such as leave to care for children or family members - is a major policy element in the promotion of a better work-life balance for employees with caring responsibilities. While the 1996 EU Directive granted the right to parental leave in all EU countries, there are wide variations between countries in the policy provisions and uptake by parents. This report explores the prevalence of parental leave in companies across Europe, based on analysing the findings of a large-scale, representative survey carried out in establishments with 10 or more employees in 21 European countries in 2004-5. The report identifies the national, sector and workplace characteristics of enterprises which have employees on such leave and analyses company policies and issues related to managing leave absences and re-integration into the workplace. It highlights the critical influence of national provisions on the taking of parental leave by employees, showing that financial support represents a strong motivating factor.
