Description
Would a government paid-leave program in the U.S. be the magic cure-all for all workers - particularly expectant mothers? Hadley Heath Manning, senior policy analyst at IWF, talks with Carrie Lukas, managing director at IWF, about what paid-leave advocates ignore in the work-family balance debate. Lukas, a working mother of five, highlights the negative consequences that arise from top-down, one-size-fits-all government programs - like paid leave - and how they particularly mean trouble for women in the workforce.
