What are the conditions for a male employee to be entitled to Paternity Leave?
Male employees must meet specific conditions to qualify for the paternity leave benefit. Republic Act No. 8187 requires the man to be employed at the time of the child’s delivery. He must also be cohabiting with his lawful spouse at the time she gives birth or suffers a miscarriage. Furthermore, he must formally apply for the leave within a reasonable period to his employer. 16-May-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
