Increase in maternity benefits.

In 1988, a new system of increased maternity benefits was introduced in Iceland. Allowances of Kr 17,370 are payable for four months as of 1988 and allowances of Kr 19,489 are payable for five months as of 1989. Allowances are payable for an additional month in the case of multiple births and for six months if the child is seriously ill. Moreover, a daily maternity benefit (Kr 817 in 1989) is payable, if the mother was employed for at least 1032 hours in the previous year; half that amount is payable if the mother was employed for between 516 and 1031 hours during the previous year. The daily allowance may be paid to the father from the second month onward, if he takes leave to look after the child.

Law No. 99 amending Law No. 49 of 7 April 1947 on working conditions, as amended, 26 December 1987.

This Law includes substantive provisions dealing with occupational health aspects of work by minors and women in Japan. Section 65 lays down, in particular, that an employer must not employ a woman for six weeks (or 10 weeks, in the case of a multiple pregnancy) before childbirth, if she requests leave during this period. An employer must not, except as indicated, employ a woman within a period of eight weeks following childbirth. A woman nursing an infant under one year of age is entitled to two nursing breaks a day, each for a period of at least 30 minutes. Under Section 68, an employer may not require a woman to work if she suffers from dysmenorrhea and requests leave for that reason.
