Employee here. Due to covid-19, Microsoft is extending parental leave to all employees with kids aged between 0-12 years. This isn't normal parental leave that you take within a year after child birth.

That's very nice of them. I recently received 12 weeks worth of unpaid parental leave. Thanks company!

That's the minimum required by law in USA FMLA

Was being factious. This isn't FMLA and isn't limited to parents at my company. Everyone gets this benefit now!
