Hulu, a streaming service owned by Disney, has reduced paternity and maternity leave for its employees. At the same time, Disney has pledged to fund out-of-state abortions for its staff.
Disney is among dozens of companies in the United States vowing to pay for employees to travel to pro-abortion states to end the lives of their unborn children following the Supreme Court’s “momentous” overturning of Roe v. Wade in June.
Goldman Sachs, H&M and Nike have also introduced similar policies.
The Society for Human Resource Management in the US recently reported that out of 3,000 companies offering parental leave “beyond what is required by law”, the percentage plummeted from 53% in 2020 to just 35% in 2022.
Similiarly, despite Disney being willing to pay for its employees’ abortions, its subsidiary company, Hulu, has slashed paternity leave from 20 weeks to eight.
Earlier this year, Amazon also told its US staff that it would pay travel expenses up to $4,000, including for abortions not locally available, as reported by SPUC.
SPUC comment
A SPUC spokesperson said: “Disney has exposed itself as a fraud, embracing abortion rather than the children it once aspired to entertain with clean content for all the family. Now, Disney appears to be openly anti-family.
“Like other pro-abortion corporates, Disney now appears to view children and pregnant employees as a nuisance rather than as a joy, and the abortion industry offers a cost-effective solution to that problem, which Disney, to its eternal shame, has bought into.
“While Disney may claim to care for its employees, for women and children, its actions say otherwise, and that hypocrisy must be called out and condemned.
“As SPUC often reports, an inimical anti-family, anti-child company culture has emerged in recent times that discriminates against mothers in the workplace. This is a profoundly harmful ethic that, far from empowering women, forces many mothers to make the terrible decision to abort their children.”
