EXPANDED MATERNITY LEAVE: Senator Risa Hontiveros discusses a proposal seeking to provide women in the public and private sectors a 120-day maternity leave, and an additional 30 days for solo mothers. “The additional 30 days can be allocated to alternate caregivers such as their common law partners, or relatives up to the 4th degree of consanguinity. It can also be extended to adopters or any person who has adopted a minor,” Hontiveros said. (PRIB Photo by Joseph Vidal / 26 September 2016)
