Spain Introduces New Two-Week Paid Parental Leave: Key Dates and Clarifications
Madrid, Spain – A new parental leave policy in Spain is granting two weeks of paid leave for parents whose children were born on or after August 2, 2024. Legal experts have clarified details of the new measure, emphasizing its distinct nature from the existing 17-week parental leave. According to legal commentators, the two-week paid leave is a separate entitlement. It is crucial for parents to note that while the eligibility criteria are based on the child's birth date, the actual request for this leave can only be made starting January 1, 2026. This clarification aims to address potential confusion arising from various news reports that may have conflated the new two-week leave with other existing parental benefits. Parents are encouraged to seek updated information to fully understand their entitlements under the new regulations.
