Family leave policies are regulations that allow employees to take time off from work to care for family members or to recover from childbirth. These policies can include paid or unpaid leave and may cover situations such as the birth or adoption of a child, caring for a sick family member, or dealing with personal health issues. In many countries, family leave policies are designed to support work-life balance and promote the well-being of families. They often vary by region and employer, with some organizations offering more generous benefits than others, reflecting the importance of family care in society.
