The revised Maternity Protection Act takes effect from Monday, February 24, 2025.
Accordingly, the mandatory leave policies provided by default in flex have been updated to reflect these changes.
Please review the details below and update your company's leave policies.
For more details on the revised Maternity Protection Act, please refer to the [2025 HR Policy Changes Summary: Salary, Leave & Time Off, Systems] flex blog post.
Custom leave can be found in the left menu under [Settings] -> [Leave Settings].
Spouse's Childbirth Leave
The number of granted days has been changed from 10 days (previous) to 20 days (revised).
To reflect this in flex, please change the 'Granted Time' setting to 20 days for the 'Spouse's Childbirth' leave.
Infertility Treatment Leave
The number of granted days has been changed from 3 days (previous) to 6 days (revised).
Accordingly, the number of paid days has also been changed from 1 day (previous) to 2 days (revised).
To reflect this in flex, adjust the 'Granted Time' setting to 6 days and the 'Partially Paid days' setting to 2 days under the 'Infertility Treatment' leave.
If the granting method is [Manually Granted by Admin], only change the pay settings and then grant 6 days to the employee.
Maternity Leave - Premature Baby Leave (New)
In cases where a premature baby is admitted to intensive care, maternity leave has been extended from 90 days (previous) to 100 days (revised).
This leave has been automatically added by flex.
When employees apply, please guide them to select the appropriate leave type based on whether the baby is premature.
