A Time to Value: Proposal for a National Paid Maternity Leave Science

---

A Time to Value: Proposal for a National Paid Maternity Leave presents a policy-driven argument for establishing a national paid maternity leave program by drawing on scientific evidence about maternal health, infant development, and the socioeconomic benefits of paid leave. The book outlines how paid maternity leave supports physical recovery, strengthens parent–infant bonding, reduces workplace inequality, and enhances long-term public health outcomes. It also analyzes existing gaps in labor policies, the disproportionate burden faced by working women, and the broader social and economic costs of inadequate leave systems. By integrating research findings with policy recommendations, the proposal advocates for a comprehensive, equitable, and evidence-based national framework that recognizes maternity leave not only as a labor right but also as a crucial investment in family well-being and societal progress.
