Abstract: Abstract Since the early 1990s the demand for maternity and parental leave, as well as for external child care facilities, has grown steadily in all European countries. Thus the provision of social care has also taken on increasing importance in the field of welfare research. This increase in demand is closely connected to the influx of women into paid employment, and has been incorporated at the EU level in several recommendations/directives by the EU to its Member States. In 1992, the EU issued the 92/241/EEC recommendation on child care, and then, in 1996, approved the 96/34/EC Directive on Parental Leave (Ejrnæs, 2008).
