Maternity leave for a decade

Yet another new year gift by the Kerala State Pay Commission to the State employees, teachers and of course not for pensioners is the proposal for revision of maternity leave of one year for women and paternity leave of ten days for men. The Commission is wise enough to identify that men have no effective role in bringing up the child. Wonderfully the commission has not restricted the number of such leaves to women. And if a woman so desires to give birth to ten children she could earn a good buck without doing any work for ten years. This I say because I have a friend who signs in his date of birth as 10/5/50 which also means that he is one among ten children of his parents and he is the fifth one. If anyone needs to meet my friend fix an appointment through woofer space blog.
