在过去的二十年里，许多研究表明，父母在生命最初的几个月里与孩子在一起的时间对儿童健康有显著的好处。美国是唯一一个没有正式政策保证工人在成为新父母时带薪休假的富裕国家。随着美国各州考虑颁布育儿假政策，这是减少健康不平等并建设更健康的美国人口的重要机会。本文件旨在对目前关于带薪育儿假与人口健康之间关系的证据进行严格审查。
Over the last two decades, numerous studies have suggested that dedicated time for parents to be with their children in the earliest months of life offers significant benefits to child health. The United States (US) is the only wealthy nation without a formalized policy guaranteeing workers paid time off when they become new parents. As individual US states consider enacting parental leave policies, there is a significant opportunity to decrease health inequities and build a healthier American population. This document is intended as a critical review of the present evidence for the association between paid parental leave and population health.
