Successful petition on extended parential leave will appear in the House

The petition №2540 has received 4,770 votes out of the 4,500 required. The law obligates the parliament to consider the proposals which got so many signatures.

The idea is targeted to extend parental leave for up to 12 days for either parent. The 12-day leave per year will be available until the child reaches the age of 13.

By the way, this is not the only petition that is pending signatures and possible approval. You can read all the appeals currently open in Luxembourg and vote for the one you think is the most important by visiting the official website.
