The most interesting innovations are the confirmation of the right of women to abortion, as well as the possibility, in case of poor health during critical days, to issue official sick leave, after receiving work leave – a message to this topic is posted on to place Congress of Deputies of the country.According to the amendments adopted, the State authorities were required to “guarantee the free exercise of the right to terminate a pregnancy” and “not to allow the applicant to be subjected to a practice likely to affect her desire” to terminate a pregnancy.In addition, government agencies are now required to inform women of the existence of sexual and reproductive rights support services.Another innovation is that the termination of pregnancy is recognized as special situations for the registration of temporary incapacity, in addition, it was decided to cancel the previously existing rule of a three-day period for the abortion, which women previously received for “compulsory consideration and receipt of information on available remedies and assistance in the event of continuation of the pregnancy.”Girls between the ages of 16 and 17 will now also be able to freely decide on their motherhood – this will not require the consent of the father or mother.The new version of the law allows women to obtain a dispensation from work (by issuing temporary incapacity) for the period of menstruation, if the critical days are difficult.
In Spain, women’s right to abortion was legally confirmed and they were allowed to take sick leave during their periods.
