LW01110434 MOTHERHOOD MANIFESTO, THE

Looks at the obstacles facing working mothers and families and the employer and public policy changes needed to restore work-life balance. Did you know that... Only four countries in the world- Lesotho, Swaziland, Papua New Guinea and the United States-fail to provide paid maternity leave to all workers? Canada now guarantees a full year of paid parental leave and California recently became the first state in the U.S. to provide such paid leave? Businesses that create flexible work environments find that productivity goes up, they attract more talent, turnover is reduced and their bottom line is improved? Moving personal stories combined with humorous animation, expert commentary and hilarious old film clips tell the tale of what happens to working mothers and their families in America. See how enlightened employers and public policy can make paid family leave, flexible working hours, part-time parity, universal healthcare, excellent childcare, after-school programs and realistic living wages a reality for American families. The film is based on the book The Motherhood Manifesto by Joan Blades and Kristin Rowe- Finkbeiner.
