In a society in which it is frowned upon that parents take time off from work to enjoy the first months of their child's life, it is comforting to hear news like this: Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook CEO will be father for the first time in a short time and He has announced that he will take two months of paternity leave after the birth of his daughter. Let the example run.
Recall that the social network he founded grants up to four months of leave to his employees who are parents. It is one of the friendliest companies with the rights of fathers and mothers along with others such as Google, Netflix, Spotify, Microsoft and Virgin, when stipulated in the United States for companies with more than 50 workers is 12 weeks, of which only Four are fully paid.
"This is a very personal decision and I have decided to take two months of paternity leave when our daughter arrives," said the young director in reference to the next birth of his first daughter with his wife, Priscilla Chan, whose pregnancy was announced in July. A very desired pregnancy after having suffered three abortions. Something he decided to talk about to encourage people to tell their cases.
Undoubtedly, an advertisement that although it may sound like an advertising position, but coming from who is coming, one of the world's largest entrepreneurs, does a great favor to family reconciliation. Hopefully it extends and reaches many other companies and sectors.
