It was released by the International Labour Organziation (ILO).
This report offers a global overview of national laws, policies, and practices on care, including maternity, paternity, parental, child, and long-term care.
It highlights how some workers fall outside the scope of these legal protections.
The report finds that three in ten women of reproductive age, or 649 million women, have inadequate maternity protection.
It means that it does not meet the key requirements of the ILO’s Maternity Protection Convention, 2000.
More than 1.2 billion men of prime reproductive age live in countries with no entitlement to paternity leave.
