California suggests maternity leave pay for teachers | |
As teacher shortages persist, a growing number of states and districts are considering policies to improve work-life balance for educators, including introducing paid pregnancy disability leave and parental leave. Despite the urgent need, the National Council on Teacher Quality’s 2022 review of 148 school districts revealed that a vast majority do not offer any form of paid parental leave, instead relying on accrued sick days for such absences. Only 18% of these districts provided paid parental leave, primarily to birthing parents, with even fewer extending this benefit to fathers or nonbirthing parents. The availability and specifics of paid leave vary widely across districts and states, highlighting the need for a more standardized approach to support teachers wanting to start families while continuing their careers. In response to this issue, California has introduced a bill aimed at addressing the teacher staffing crisis by offering paid leave to educators, a move supported by Democrats and expected to be discussed in committee soon. This initiative comes after Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed a similar proposal in 2019 due to its high projected costs, suggesting instead that such matters be handled through local collective bargaining or within the state budget.
