[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]3 to 4 months is the minimum it takes to train a new person.  If a woman leaves because she is having a baby, the company is in an even bigger bind due to productivity loss and recruiting costs. All of those screaming how your peers would resent you for taking leave, just aren't very bright. [/quote]

Wrong again, but whatever supports your self-serving narrative, right? I'm sure the majority of coworkers don't mind covering for a peer's maternity leave for a month or two, but three months of covering someone else's workload completely is pushing it. At least with a new hire they'd be doing SOMETHING. With OP's policy she's advocating for double that time--so 6 months--where others are covering for someone else. Or OP suggest they come back and spend 3 months half-assing and working part-time while pulling a full-time salary. And that's all assuming your peer is only having one kid! Rinse and repeat for every other kid. Nobody loves their coworkers that much.[/quote]

Oh please cite the sources that say I'm wrong.  Your selfish attitude is just not supported by facts.  [/quote]
