Spain is good. Be more like Spain.

I have endo, this would be helpful.

Ugh I wish Canada did this! I have PCOS so it makes my monthly miserable. I'm happy that I do run regular, unlike the majority of PCOS people, but boy is it miserable. So much pain those first 2 days and such a heavy flow I hate even leaving the house out of fear of leaking thru. Makes it a miserable few days a month at work. I go, but I don't move. I find if i sit still the cramps are not as bad.. probably because im so focused on breathing and getting through each cramp.

France, wake up, and please give us this too. It's hard to work among children when your head is gonna explode, and your belly feels like it get punch every second.

If the shoe was on the other foot we would've had this for soooo damn long by now

I would've moved to Spain if that had been a thing 20 years ago

Why has this taken so long

This should be considered in schools too!

While this is a good idea, I think this will just motivate Spanish companies to not hire women because they know they will be required to give them 3 days of leave per month.

In Monotone: "Ow oh god I'm in such pain going through my period Boss: but you're a dude, dude Me: F*ck.

Nice to see some place respecting woman. Good on you Spain.

Why can I not upvote more than once!?

Just wanted to throw in that if you are experiencing excruciating pain during those special days you should definitely check it out. Could be harmless cysts that cause the pain nevertheless. They can be treated fairly well so that the symptoms will become much, much better after treatment.

Oh please bring this to my state!

Omg. My PMDD causes me to miss at least a day a month, as it is.

THANK YOU!! For taking cramps seriously!

WHY ISN'T THIS A THING EVERYWHERE

This is amazing!!

I'm moving to Spain.

it should be just 'sick leave', as somebody without menstrual pains i'd totally use it for my migraines

Indonesia did the same in the past years, but not anymore now

I could use this right now lmao

That would save me from almost getting fired once a month

Of course what would be EVEN better is if doctors took it seriously and developed traeatments that actually WORKED..

I wish this is an universal law! It was horrible during school…

You'd think companies would rally to make it easier for women to get contraceptives for this specific reason. But that costs money. And this would lose them money. Capitalism sucks.

I love this, but just imagine if Men had to go through menstruation, this would have been law YEARS ago (sorry, not hating on all men here, just hope you get my meaning)

that's 36 extra days a year! I'm pretty sure that's more than a lot of jobs in America get for payed time off...

How've you not gotten used to it by then?

Soooo, is this retroactive?? All the days I showed up for work at that time... for 40+ years...

So that's about 14% of the time. So they work about 86% of the time.

Can I upvote several times? I always said if men got their periods, it would be illegal to make them work those three days a month! Yay!

Oh thank god. Finally.

As a person born female, I'd take that

Are you kidding!? Wow. How nice is that!
