Commitment

Provide 12 months' paid leave for each parent

What this means

  • People Before Profit is a political party that put forward this commitment in its November 2024 general election manifesto.[source]
  • The commitment is to give each parent 12 months of paid leave to use within the first two years of their child's life.[source]
  • This is a promise only. It has not been enacted into law or policy, and no delivery date has been set.[source]
  • The policy falls under social protection and would affect working parents and families with newborn or young children across Ireland.[source]
  • Tracking whether this promise moves beyond a manifesto pledge matters for voters who want to hold parties to account on family and work supports.[source]
