Re:Google's formula to retain women: Longer maternity leave by danielbarla on Friday August 24, 2012 @09:44AM (#4427504)
I think it's not a reason only because people's expectations in that regard are extremely low, and also, because anything remotely reasonable is seen as a perk. As such, women might might not leave over something they never knew they should have had. Just as a point of reference, several European countries measure maternity leave in years, not months.

And if you're looking for reasonable fiscal decisions, Europe is definitely an A+ place to look.
