Coding rules

This indicator measures the length of the maternity “benefit” instead of “leave”. In cases where only part of the leave is paid, the duration of the benefit may differ from the duration of the leave. For instance, if the program offers 6 weeks of unpaid leave, the duration of the benefit would be recorded as 0 weeks, while duration of the leave would be coded as 6 weeks. If the program provides only cash or in-kind benefits, the duration of the benefit is coded as missing, given that we are interested in programs that provide both time and income compensation to protect against social risks associated with childbirth. In cases of lump-sum payments, it is coded as “lump sum” rather than by the length of the benefit.

This variable provides detailed information about the length of both unpaid and paid maternity leave, preserving the original coding from national legislation texts as much as possible. It requires preprocessing to extract the necessary information for cross-sectional analysis. The unit of this variable can vary from days to years. It contains not only the total length of paid maternity leave but also any specific time periods before and after childbirth if specified by maternity protection laws. Users can capture this information using the regular expression, such as “[digit] weeks; [digit] weeks before; [digit] weeks after”.

In some cases, a range for the duration is provided. If the duration of leave varies depending on factors such as the period of contributions by beneficiaries or the occupational groups of beneficiaries, we code the range of durations in the format “[digit] – [digit] duration” (e.g. 12 – 14 weeks). In these cases, the “comment” or “comment2” columns provide additional information about the conditions that account for the varying durations of the benefit.
