Here's the actual study which was conducted by the Center for Economic and Policy Research [ link to www.cepr.net] Quoting: clovis From the CEPR study "United States law offers no guarantees of paid leave. The only exceptions are for government contractors and subcontractors covered under the Davis-Bacon Act."What's the Davis-Bacon Act you ask? From Wikipedia, "The Davis–Bacon Act of 1931 is a United States federal law that establishes the requirement for paying the local prevailing wages on public works projects. It applies to “contractors and subcontractors performing on federally funded or assisted contracts in excess of $2,000 for the construction, alteration, or repair (including painting and decorating) of public buildings or public works” [ link to en.wikipedia.org]
