Duke Energy Increases Maternal Leave Benefits, Extends Paid Leave for Dads

Charlotte-based Duke Energy (NYSE: DUK) says expanding benefits is good for employees and will help it recruit and retain highly skilled people.

The additional paid leave for mothers and fathers applies to births, adoptions, and foster care placements. Employees can take the leave within the first 16 weeks of the birth, adoption or placement. That means new parents could extend the time that a child is cared for in the home by allowing one spouse to take leave after the other. Same-sex domestic partners also qualify for the additional benefits.
