Currently the Malaysian government has allowed its employees to take 90 days maternity leave. The private sector is still allowing only 60 days. As long as the labour law is not amended, do not expect them to toe the example set by the government. I do understand that the longer the leave an employee takes, it may affect the productivity of the firm as well as its profits.

So what is then umber of days allowed for maternity leave in your country?

They let people to take time off, but they don't pay. There is no regulation, so employer can refuse to give someone time off. sad
I know that in Canada people can take 12 months and it is paid at 50%.
Not in USA....sad
