Fathers entitled to equal parental leave, South Africa's top court rules
South Africa's highest court has unanimously ruled that all parents of new-borns are entitled to equal parental leave - a landmark judgment hailed as a major victory for gender equality and family rights.
Under the current law, mothers are granted four months of leave, while fathers receive just 10 days.
In its ruling, the Constitutional Court declared parts of the legislation unconstitutional, calling it discriminatory against fathers, and ruled that both parents may now share the granted leave however they choose.
"This is a ground-breaking step for equality, family wellbeing, and the future of fatherhood in South Africa," said Sthembiso Phakathi, founder of Single Dads Network.
