I do like how well they describe the data source (other than the unclear "main business city" part). It gives enough detail to know that the FMLA applies, which would total the 168 days shown here. FMLA is unpaid, however, but the chart says paid days, which should be zero. The "data souce" page does not specify that the leave is paid, so I'd suspect it's wrong for other countries as well.
