Parental Leave Analysis

The Challenge:

Working as a Data Visualization Specialist at an online business journal, the role is to create charts, visuals, and infographics as supporting content for articles.

This Maven Family Leave Challenge gave us the opportunity to explore how maternity and paternity policies stack up in the workplace using a dataset of 1,600 distinct company policies.

Ideas to explore for general analysis:

Is paid leave offered the same for maternal vs. paternal parents?

What is the average number of weeks of paid leave offered?

Is unpaid leave offered more or less than paid leave?

What percentage of companies offer no maternal or paternal leave?

What industries offer the best paid parental leave?

What are the top companies offering paid parental leave?

How do paid/unpaid parental leave policies compare based on weeks offered?
