The ILO report Care at Work: Investing in Care Leave Policies and Care Services for a More Gender-Equal World of Work (ILO, 2022) provides a global overview of national laws and practices regarding care policies, namely maternity protection, paternity, parental and other care-related leave policies, as well as childcare and long-term care services. The report presents findings from an ILO legal survey of 185 countries, and reviews progress made around the world over the past decade while assessing the persisting and significant legal gaps that translate into a lack of protection and support for millions of workers with family responsibilities across the world. It also offers a macrosimulation model on how to close the gap between these standards and the practice. Drawing on the results of the Care at Work report and the ILO Care Policy Investment Simulator (ILO, 2023), this presentation will provide a review of the status and progress of legislation on care policies with focus on maternity, breastfeeding and other childcare-related leave policies around the world. It will also presents the investment case and the benefits of a transformative package of care policies, including support for childcare-related leave and breastfeeding.

Learning Objectives: 

  • Learn about progress and legal gaps on care policies, with focus on childcare-related leave and breastfeeding at work.
  • Learn about the investment requirements and benefits of public policies supporting transformative care policy packages, with focus on childcare-related leave and breastfeeding at work.
