All women in Haiti are legally entitled to 6 weeks of maternity leave with 100% of their average pay to be compensated by their employer.<ref>http://www.ilo.org/wcmsp5/groups/public/---dgreports/---dcomm/---publ/documents/publication/wcms_242615.pdf</ref> However, the reality of the situation can be much different and many women find that they are not in a position to receive this aid. <ref>http://www.nbcnews.com/id/29706995/ns/health-pregnancy/t/giving-birth-fraught-danger-haiti/#.WLVr_BJ94y4</ref> In Haiti, there are only 201 nurse-midwives for a population of 10 million. NGO Midwives for Haiti are trying to fill this gap with much needed help to improve mother and child survival. As of 2013, For every 100,000 babies born in Haiti, 630 women die of pregnancy-related causes<ref>http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/world/americas/haiti/article1957834.html</ref>.
