摘要

在英格兰和威尔士,当妊娠结束时,法定的带薪休假时间仅限于活产或死产的情况。产假或陪产假等休假形式取决于新生儿民事登记或死产后的父母身份。其他早孕终止情况,如流产或堕胎,并不提供怀孕后的具体休假时间。本文使用生殖治理的概念来分析当前和不断变化的生物政治真理论述、干预策略以及围绕孕后假期的主体化模式。它展示了作为该领域政治技术的分类界限是如何产生不同的包容和排斥的。我们对这一文献中研究不足的领域做出了贡献,回顾了孕后法定就业假在这一背景下的权利。然后,我们考虑了英国政治制度中提出的变革建议,这些建议涉及一些雇主提供的更具包容性的休假福利,以及其他司法管辖区提供的不同的终止妊娠假。我们认为,目前的安排和建议没有充分反映结束妊娠的复杂性和多样性。最后,我们呼吁所有情况下的政策制定者认真评估围绕结束妊娠假期的新想法的后果,并制定包容性和公平的变革建议。

Employment leave for early pregnancy endings: A biopolitical reproductive governance analysis in England and Wales

When a pregnancy ends in England and Wales, statutory time away from paid employment is limited to circumstances where there is a live birth or stillbirth. Forms of leave, such as Maternity Leave or Paternity Leave, depend on parental status derived from the civil registration of a new person or a post-viability stillbirth. Other early pregnancy endings, such as miscarriage or abortion, do not provide specific time off work after pregnancy. This paper uses the concept of reproductive governance to analyze current and shifting biopolitical truth discourses, strategies of intervention, and modes of subjectification around post-pregnancy leaves. It shows how different inclusions and exclusions are generated by the classificatory boundaries which act as political technologies in this field. Contributing to an area that is under-researched in the literature, we provide a review of post-pregnancy statutory employment leave entitlements in this context. We then consider proposals for change presented in the United Kingdom political system in relation to more inclusive leave benefits offered by some employers and different pregnancy ending leaves offered in other jurisdictions. We argue that current arrangements and proposals do not adequately reflect the complexity and diversity of pregnancy endings. We conclude with a call to policymakers in all contexts to carefully assess the consequences of new ideas around leaves for pregnancy endings and to formulate inclusive and fair proposals for change.
