Will maternity leave be extended, how many days will it be? Will birth leave increase? Vice President Yılmaz announced!

Recent developments regarding the duration of maternity leave are being closely followed. Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz made important statements at the opening of the Population Policy Board Meeting. Following Yılmaz's statements, the question 'Will the duration of maternity leave be extended?' has come to the agenda. Maternity leave covers the period of leave that pregnant employees take before and after childbirth. Maternity leave can be used for a certain period before birth or entirely after birth and is subject to certain conditions. This leave is provided to ensure that the mother does not suffer a loss of rights in her working life and has different applications in the private and public sectors. So, will the duration of maternity leave be increased? How much will maternity leave be extended, and how many days will it be?
