In Zambia, all non-unionized workers (such as soldiers, domestic workers, public service workers, police, and teachers) are technically entitled to 120 days of unpaid maternity leave. If workers are in unions, they are entitled to 90 days of paid maternity leave.<ref>[https://mywage.org/zambia/decent-work/maternity-and-work/maternity-leave MyWage, Zambia - Maternity Leave, FAQ]</ref> However, in practice, there may be many workers, such as rural laborers, who are not granted the ability to take off many days of work, and we do not yet have data on how and if these laws are enforced.
