Which country approved a bill which grants paid medical leave for women who suffer from severe period pain?

  • A. Finland
  • B. Spain
  • C. Sweden
  • D. Norway

Correct Answer: B. Spain

Spain`s cabinet on May 17, 2022, approved a bill that grants paid medical leave for women who suffer from severe period pain, in what would be a first in Europe. The bill entitles workers experiencing period pain to as much time off as they need, with the state social security system, not employers picking up the tab for the sick leave. As with paid leave for other health reasons, a doctor must approve the temporary medical incapacity.
