In Italy, Women's unemployment is seen to be twice as high as the male unemployment rate. Italy has very good maternity leave, consisting of two months off before the expected delivery date and 3 months after the delivery date. During this time the women are paid 80% of their daily salary. Italy gives family benefits in the form of money with the understanding of employment. These benefits are also increased for any family member who is handicapped.
