As part of the measures implemented in schools and childcare facilities to combat COVID-19, family leave related to the COVID-19 pandemic has been introduced.

This is a specific procedure which allows a parent of a child between the ages of 4 and 13 to benefit from this extended leave in case of:

• quarantine or isolation of a child on the order or recommendation of the Health Directorate or competent authority;
  
• partial or total suspension of activities in schools and childcare facilities.
  

Due to the current health situation, this family leave has been extended until 23 July 2022 inclusive.
