Maternity leave for the worker, without her having been pregnant, was already possible in the case of adoption, as was paternity leave.
The novelty of the recent STF ruling, in a case of general repercussion, was in the case of a same-sex union between two women, in which the partner became pregnant. The non-pregnant mother was granted the right to maternity leave.
The interesting thing about these cases is that when one of the couple's mothers is on maternity leave, the other can apply for leave for the same period as the paternity leave.
