Till now you must have heard only about the maternity leave given to women employees by government or private companies. This leave is for 26 weeks i.e. about 6 months. But now men who become fathers will also get three months leave and it has been kept in the category of paternity leave.

This initiative started by an Indian company which has been in demand for a long time in India is commendable. Till now there is a provision for men to get such leave in different countries. In India too, there is a demand on this for a long time. Now the country’s company Pfizer India has started this initiative. It is being seen as an example in this industry. On behalf of Pfizer India, it has been announced to implement Paternity Leave Policy for the male employees working here.

Maximum 6 weeks leave at a time

Pfizer India’s management has implemented a 12-week paternity leave policy for male employees. In this policy, a man who becomes a father can take advantage of these holidays anytime within two years from the date of birth of the child. Those applying for paternity leave will be able to get leave for at least two weeks and maximum 6 weeks at a time. That is, you cannot apply for three months leave at one go.

The new policy has been made effective from January 1, 2023 by the company. Apart from the biological dad, the adoptive father will also be able to take advantage of this policy of the company. The employees of the company will also be able to take casual leave, elective leave and wellness leave etc. in case of any other need or problem.
