UK dads can take 2 weeks off work after a baby, but pay is less than half the National Living Wage. Many think this isn't enough time or money.

In Spain, dads get 16 weeks off at full pay. In France, dads get four weeks off, with some pay from the state.
In Denmark, dads get 24 weeks off work. In Sweden, parents share 480 days off, with 90 days for dads.
In Poland, dads get two weeks off with full pay. They can take more time off at lower pay. This helps when their partner goes back to work.
Some UK companies give more paternity leave, but not all. A report says the government should give dads more time off with better pay.
The UK government plans to improve paternity leave, helping more dads take time off work when they have a baby.
