Do mothers who have multiple births (e.g., twins) get additional Government-Paid Maternity Leave (GPML), or do they receive the same amount as mothers with single births?

Updated by MSF

Government-Paid Maternity Leave (GPML) is granted per delivery and not based on the number of children born. Mothers with multiple births are granted the same benefits as that of mothers with single births, which is 16 weeks of GPML.
