Paid Period Leave Petition
Paid Period Leave is a Canadian social program paid for by the government to allow menstruators compensated time off to recover from their periods.
Why Sign The Petition?
Menstrual pain can be debilitating and can severely impact the quality of life. For some, the extreme overall, whole-body symptoms prevent them from going to work, school, or having a social life. Having a low quality of life can lead to anxiety, depression, isolation, and shame. With paid period leave, a menstruator can recover knowing that their job won’t be lost.
Petition Ends July 23rd, 2023
We, the undersigned, citizens of canada, call upon the House of Commons in Parliament assembled to offer state-funded paid leave (3-5 days a month) for people who suffer from painful periods. Sign below to join the movement.
