Does it? Most European countries offer 1 year paid maternity leave (quite often it's almost 14 months because PTO is still applies) then you can take another 1 year of unpaid leave. The employer cannot fire you.

If I’m a small business making enough to employ myself and 2 other people, how very carefully would I think about taking on someone whom I might need to pay to not* work at my company for a year?
Where I live: Government pay for it if the company has fewer than 20 people.
That makes it way more feasible for small businesses. Of course that now just makes me think extremely hard before hiring my 20th person.
That’s at least a much less serious limitation to job creation.
