United Kingdom Belgian women to get 5 weeks extra after giving birth
Published on 01/07/2011
In Belgium, mothers automatically get 3 months off when they give birth to a baby. This is a rather short period compared to other European countries, but it could be extended to four months later this year. Belgium is following a European guideline.
