rizkeyz··on Without parental leave I might be dead
I live in Europe and we became parents recently. The mother gets about four months of paid parental leave by default: two before and two after the day of birth (paid by the health insurer plus taxes). In addition, parents can take over a year of paid parental leave (paid by everyone, i.e. taxes).

That's the baseline and no company needs to bother with any company-specific policy, pseudo-benefit. No company incurs any explicit costs for that.

This is not even the most family friendly country in Europe, btw.
