Record Number of Complaints Over "Sick Leave After Abortion" Topic

1 July - 47 mins
Podcast Series Opinions Matter with Adrian & Jeremy

The government is considering introducing five days paid leave for women who suffer pregnancy loss before 23 weeks — and most people agree that’s long overdue for miscarriage.

But a lot of listeners got onto us about one key detail: the same paid leave would also apply to women who’ve had a termination. Should it be treated the same as miscarriage leave, or is it a “choice” that shouldn’t be “rewarded”?

With live callers taking both sides, the debate turns fiery fast — from “it’s healthcare” and compassion, to accusations of “murder”, shaming, and whether employers should even know the reason. Strictly over 18s.
