Due to changes in the labor force behavior of women with young children, new employee benefits related to parenthood have been proposed. The establishment of a non-discriminatory parental leave benefit is intended to address the issue of limited availability of childcare; the establishment of a non-discriminatory leave for all temporary, nonoccupational medical reasons would create a standard disability benefit for all workers. This report summarizes and analyzes legislation proposed in the 99th Congress to create these benefits.
