In Colombia, women are entitled to 14 weeks of maternity leave. They can leave up to 2 weeks before their expected date of delivery. By one week before expected delivery, it is mandatory that the woman takes maternity leave. As detailed in AngloInfo: "After the 37th week of pregnancy, the mother should ask her doctor to prepare a ''Licencia de maternidad pre parto'', entitling her to maternity leave one or two weeks prior to the birth of the baby. In the event of a premature birth the mother should contact the health service provider to follow the procedure with the employer."<ref>[https://www.angloinfo.com/colombia/how-to/page/colombia-healthcare-pregnancy-birth-maternity-protection AngloInfo Colombia: Maternity Protection]</ref> | |||
