paid family leave

Compensated caregiving time

Paid family leave is time off from work with continued wages, typically for caring for a newborn, newly adopted child, or seriously ill family member.

Unlike unpaid leave, workers receive some or all of their regular pay during the absence: The company offers twelve weeks of paid family leave.

Policies vary widely by country and employer, with some nations mandating it by law while others leave it to individual companies.
