How come women who give birth cannot add on the maternity leave time to their temporary research contracts?

De toezegging was er al, en nu wordt het ook realiteit: de helft van de nieuwe ministers en staatssecretarissen is vrouw. Voor het eerst wordt in NL een kabinet aangesteld dat geen oververtegenwoordiging van mannen huisvest. 😧 Bekijk hier alle posten: nrc.nl/nieuws/2022/01/02/wie…

De universiteit moet meer pro-actief beleid voeren om een veilige werkomgeving te creëren en medewerkers in kwetsbare posities te beschermen. Ik schreef er een stukje over in @nrc ⬇️ nrc.nl/nieuws/2021/05/05/haa…
