〔記者李靚慧/台北報導〕王小姐的女兒今年5歲,當年在小孩出生後不久,王小姐與先生各自請了6個月的育嬰假,雙方均領了6個月的育嬰留停津貼,在明年1月1日《性別平等工作法》與《就業保險法》修正案實施後,王小姐在女兒「滿9歲前」,與先生2人將可分別多請3個月「育兒留職停薪」,這3個月均有投保薪資8成的津貼,更讓王小姐開心的是,這3個月中的60天,可以彈性的「以日請」育兒假,即使請假參加學校的家長會,也會有薪資補貼。
立法院今(13)日三讀修正通過立法院三讀通過《性別平等工作法》與《就業保險法》修正案,不但將產假延長至14週、陪產檢及陪產假增至14天,對目前約92.9萬育有「未滿9歲」孩童的父母而言,更直接的誘因,在於原本子女3歲前的「育嬰留職停薪」,在延伸為子女年滿9歲前的「育兒留職停薪」後,雙親有機會可領滿最高18個月、投保薪資8成的「育兒津貼」。
勞動部勞動條件及就業平等司司長黃琦雅指出,根據統計,目前投保就業保險的勞工中,約有92.9萬育有「未滿9歲」孩童,這些孩童的父母,只要過去的2年育嬰假未請滿,在明年1月1日後,孩子又未滿9歲,在孩子滿9歲前,父母均可繼續申請剩餘的「育兒留職停薪」,且只要父母二人都請滿6個月,就可多獲得3個月的有津貼的「育兒留職停薪」。
如果當年只有媽媽請了6個月的育嬰假並領取津貼也沒關係,黃琦雅表示,在小孩滿9歲前,爸爸也可以申請6個月有津貼補助的「育兒留職停薪」,等到爸爸的6個月補助領滿,政府會再加碼父母2人各3個月的「育兒留職停薪」津貼,合計可領取18個月。
過去女性勞工生產、請完產假後,就得考慮小孩3歲前是否要請「育嬰假」。勞動部勞動條件及就業平等司司長黃琦雅指出,勞動部在聽取民間團體及立法委員建議後,考量兒童由幼兒園銜接至國民小學低年級階段,面臨群體生活適應及傳染疾病好發等挑戰,本次修法將原本子女年齡未滿3歲可申請的「育嬰留停」,提高至「8歲以下、滿9歲前」得申請「育兒留職停薪」,期間以2年為限。其中的6個月,可以請領「育兒留停津貼補助」,父母2人若都請滿6個月津貼,2人可各再多請領3個月,換言之,最長可各請領至9個月,雙親合計可請領最高18個月的育兒留停津貼。
不僅如此,現行30日的「以日請」育嬰留職停薪,未來將升級加倍為60日的「育兒假」,包含在2年的「育兒留職停薪」內,同樣是子女年齡滿9歲前,若父母親面臨子女有生病、停托、停課、預防接種、托育與教保服務機構及學校舉辦親職活動,或其他事由須親自照顧,都可請育兒假,新法預計在明年1月1日實施。
