Parental leave podcast episode

Have you ever had to take time off as a new parent? Does your workplace have a family or medical leave policy that allows you to take time off to care for a child or family member? Did you use all your time or have to use sick leave? Was there policy for new mothers and fathers?… What’s work got to do with parental leave?

Our next podcast episode discusses parental leave with guests, Dr. David Hurtado, Dr. Julia Goodman and Dr. Dawn Richardson. They dive into current issues and concerns on parental leave, and their evaluation of a parental leave policy that was recently implemented for all Multnomah County employees. The show transcript is also available.
