[quote=Anonymous]So, I skipped over some posts in the middle, but people seem to be confusing two things: 1) How long do most employers provide full paid maternity leave? 2) How long do most white collar professionals take off? The answer to the first question is 6 weeks. The answer to the second is somewhere between 12 and 20, in my experience. That is, white collar employers will typically pay for 6 and then let you use a combination of vacation, sick, and short-term disability to stretch out to 12 or 16 weeks. Sometimes 20 if your boss really likes you and you do a ton of work on the front end to make sure it doesn't hurt the team. So, by that standard, OP is being quite generous in giving twice the typical amount of paid leave, and pretty normal in wanting the employee back at 12 weeks. [/quote]
