Description:

Parental leave can have a positive impact on the mental health of parents but just how long do those effects last? 

In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, we speak to one of the authors of a first of its kind systematic review published in The Lancet Public Health journal that investigated the evidence on the effect of parental leave policies on the mental health of parents. The results are surprising.
