New Provisions On Maternity Leave Under Social Insurance Law No. 25/08
Authors : بوزيد خالد .
Abstract
Providing legal protection for working women necessarily requires the existence of legal rules that enable women to reconcile their work and family responsibilities, given that a woman’s role toward her family is more important and deserves priority in care. This is what prompted the legislator to amend the provisions relating to maternity leave in the Social Insurance Law pursuant to Law No. 25/08, issued in 2025, as a bold step toward strengthening social protection for the working mother and her newborn. This reflects the legislator’s concern for both the family and women. Such concern is manifested in the new legislation’s establishment of a full financial compensation system for the working mother during the period of work suspension, with the possibility of extending maternity leave to accompany serious health conditions that some newborns may face.
