Abstract

This paper attempts to review the impact of policies on women preparing for pregnancy in the workplace and puts forward some personal suggestions by analyzing and comparing the current status of marriage and childbirth policies in various countries around the world. This paper finds that: 1)the policies of marriage and childbirth are directional to women; 2)Well-intentioned policies such as maternity leave sometimes may cause side effects; 3)Due to different social needs in different countries, the policies cannot be directly compared because of the current needs; 4)Most of the policies in the world currently play a positive role in the issue of discrimination against women in the workplace, and some policies even fight against the inherent prejudice of society. This paper can provide implications for future research to pay attention to gender policies and reduce the gender gap.
