[Problem] To prevent opening of an overlap part in which lateral end parts of a covering sheet for enclosing an absorbent are superposed on each other, and to facilitate liquid diffusion. [Solution] An incontinence pad (1) in which an absorbent (4) enclosed by a covering sheet (5) is interposed between a liquid-permeable surface sheet (3) and a back sheet (2), and left-right symmetrical embossing (10, 10) is formed on a face side of the liquid-permeable surface sheet (3). The overlap part (9) in which the lateral parts of the covering sheet (5) are superposed on each other is provided along a longitudinal direction on a surface side of the absorbent (4), and the embossing (10) on one side among the left-right symmetrical embossing (10, 10) is applied so that the vertically-directed length thereof overlapping with the overlap part (9) is in a range of 70% or more of the longitudinally-directed length (LS) of the overlap part (9), and in a range of 10% or more of the width-directed length (WS) of the overlap part (9). An adhesive for joining covering sheets (5, 5) together is not applied in the longitudinally-directed range in which the embossing (10) is applied in the overlap part (9).L'invention vise à prévenir l'ouverture d'une partie de chevauchement, dans laquelle des parties d'extrémité latérale d'une feuille de recouvrement destinée à contenir un absorbant sont superposées l'une sur l'autre, et à faciliter la diffusion de liquides. L'invention concerne une serviette pour incontinence (1), dans laquelle un absorbant (4) contenu par une feuille de recouvrement (5) est placé entre une feuille de surface (3) perméable aux liquides et une feuille arrière (2), et un gaufrage symétrique (10, 10) gauche-droite est formé sur un côté de la feuille de surface (3) perméable aux liquides. La partie de chevauchement (9), dans laquelle les parties latérales de la feuille de recouvrement (5) sont superposées l'une sur l'autre, est prévue dans la direction longitudinale sur une
