Manitoba Maternity Leave Changes Backed by Labour Minister
Labour Minister Becky Barrett proposes amendments to Manitoba Employment Standards to extend unpaid maternity and parental leave to 37 weeks and add 9 to 34 weeks of combined benefits with EI. New rules require two weeks notice before returning to work, aiding employers planning replacements. The changes align Manitoba with other jurisdictions and seek broad legislative support.
