Peers?

GNP of:

Liberia is $2.821B
Swaziland is $5.936B
Papua New Guinea is $15.41B
United States is $13.13 TRILLION

What could these countries all have in common? Of the 177 countries worldwide these 4 are the only nations that do not guarantee paid leave and/or a substantial birth payment for parents to care for their newborn babies.

It's time for the United States to start matching their 1st world peers in taking care of it's workers. Find out more at www.9to5.org on how we can be leaders in promoting the family value of having time from work to take care of your family.
