If you are the primary caregiver of a new child, you can take up to 12 weeks leave at 100% paid salary. If you are the secondary caregiver of a new child, you can take up to 4 weeks leave at 100% paid salary.

Maternity leave
When you're pregnant, we recommend you inform your lead and HR no later than 3 months before your due date. This way we have enough time for preparing our plans and working schedules to make things work when you are absent. We also need a pregnancy statement from your doctor with the due date.

You can take 2 weeks before birth and help your partner to get ready for one of the major events in life and 2 weeks off to enjoy your new offspring and help your partner, or you can take all 4 weeks after the birth at once. During these 4 weeks, you get your full salary paid. Just make sure you and your lead have made arrangements about the continuity of the ongoing projects/work within your team during your absence.
