Abstract:
The law is constantly changing as a result of social dynamics that, every day, rules
have changed, and extinguished created, resembling other legal institutions existing
or arising from a situation never before regulated. One such case in which a law is
amended, paternity leave, thanks to new family situations that arise in contemporary
society. The rule on paternity leave exists, however, emerges when discussions
alluded to the principle of equality and family relations, as the single parent family.
Given this, one wonders about the possibility of change for the period and
guarantees given to the woman on maternity leave, to the level of paternity in the
case of man, through greater effectiveness of equality of legal situations and subjects
of law, reasserting the interests of the child. In this context, aims to demonstrate the
complexity of the issue before the Labor Law and family relations, based on the
fundamentals of licenses directed by law to man and woman, in the case of birth or
adoption of children. From this it allows to evaluate the application of collateral equal
to man when it come to benefit from paternity leave, necessitating the effects of
maternity leave that case. To this end, uses a deductive approach, where you will
complete the implementation of the study through historical and comparative
methods, approaching the labor institutes within the legal equality. So also require
the development of research in doctrine and jurisprudence with indirect
documentation based on robust legal bibliography. Thus, it is clear that nothing
prevents the application of similar paternity leave, obviously the bachelor or widower,
in the face of an extended period and guarantees previously provided to women,
benefiting the child and protecting family relationships.
