Spain's new law offers four days of paid climate leave to workers who are unable to get to work safely or work remotely during climate catastrophes.

Spain’s Left-wing government has introduced paid climate leave after flash flooding in Valencia last month claimed at least 222 lives and caused widespread devastation.

Workers in Spain now have access to "paid climate leave." The new measure, put in a place a month after deadly floods ravaged the Valencia region, allows workers to take up to four days of paid time off during weather emergencies rather than have to commute.
