Extended Paid Maternity Leave in Hong Kong

In the May issue of Health Affairs, Ellie Andres of Duke-NUS and her team of coauthors explore the mental health implications of Hong Kong’s extension of statutory paid maternity leave ([link removed] ) from ten weeks to fourteen weeks.

The researchers find that the maternity leave extension was associated with improved maternal mental health outcomes.

Among other findings they estimate a 50 percent reduction in the odds of mothers reporting that their emotional well-being caused more than “some” interference with baby care during the first two months postpartum.

Andres and coauthors also find reductions in mothers experiencing postnatal depressive symptoms.
