Macau Women’s General Association Vice-President Wong Kit Cheng said yesterday she hoped employers will realise that paternity leave boosts employees’ morale.
The association is commonly known as ‘Fu Luen’, its Cantonese name.
Wong made the remarks on the sidelines of a public activity held at the Fu Luen headquarters in Rua da Barca, where its members displayed signature boards containing over 1,000 signatures collected since last Tuesday to convince the government to mandate that the private business sector’s mandatory paid paternity leave period amount to five days.
