” The Việt Nam Population Authority has proposed allowing female workers to extend their maternity leave from six months to seven months, when giving birth to a second child.
The move is part of the draft law on population being compiled by the Ministry of Health aimed at tackling the country’s low birth rate.
The authority also proposed creating conditions for women with two children who work at industrial parks, export processing zones and provinces and cities with low birth rates, to get support in order to rent or to buy social housing.”-Viet Nam News
