Mass reaction across the globe
trails a fresh law which permits female employees in Zambia to go on a day off
per month during their monthly period.
Sources reported that the purpose
of the law is to help female workers sort out their menstrual cramps, thus
attracting both positive and some kind of ridiculous reaction from users of
social media. Some are even saying such a law should be introduced in the
United States.
Below are some the excerpts of
the reactions:
@Walmart workers' union in Zambia
won in their contract and in law 1-day a month menstruation leave. Why not in
US?

New Zambia labour law allows
women one paid day off monthly when they are having their periods; called
Mothers Day but applies to all women.
@wateraid
Should women be given a 'day off'
per month to manage their period, as they are in Zambia?
