SINGAPORE: A new father took to social media on Thursday (Aug 6) to share that he was “slapped with a PIP” as soon as he returned to the office from paternity leave. Another wrote, “Sometimes companies may discriminate against ‘paternity leave’ way more than ‘maternity leave’ even though they provide it.
