Laws that govern employment relationships indicate the ethical norms a particular country or state wishes to advance. This can be seen no more clearly than in cases of family or medical leave.
Visit the website for the Clearinghouse in International Development in Child, Youth, and Family Policies (www.childpolicyintl.org) and compare the family and medical leave policies of the United States with those of other industrialized countries around the world. Write a paper in which you address the following questions: How does the United States compare on a world scale when it comes to employee benefits for family leave? What does this comparison say about the ethical norms of the United States in areas of employment relationships?
