Question 17917 — work

Summary

Mr. Pierrick Courbon draws the attention of the Minister of Labor and Solidarity to the conditions of application of the new birth leave. If this welcome measure aims to encourage the presence of parents with their child, several points should be examined in order to guarantee its effectiveness. The suspension of the employment contract during leave may in particular raise questions about maintaining the position, responsibilities and, where applicable, employment-related benefits upon the employee's return. The question of supplementary health coverage also calls for particular attention, particularly when the suspension of mutual insurance occurs at a time when the health needs of the household may be greater. Difficulties may also arise for employees with a company vehicle when it must be returned. during the leave period, in particular when this vehicle constitutes the main means of transport for the household. Finally, the absence of acquisition of paid leave during this period can reduce the parents' possibilities for organization during the year following the birth, particularly in the event of constraints linked to childcare arrangements. He asks him if the Government plans to take these different issues into account in the evaluation and, if necessary, in a future development of the system, in order to guarantee that the use of birth leave can fully meet the objective pursued.
