Employment Updates

New leave rights for parents as to how they use maternity and paternity leave.

The government is proposing to change the law so that employed mothers will be able to transfer all or part of the last 26 weeks of maternity leave to the father. To the extent that this "additional paternity leave" is taken during the mother's 39 week maternity pay period, it would be paid at the same rate as SMP, currently £123.06.

A consultation on draft regulations is to be launched soon. Subject to consultation and parliamentary procedure, the Government intends that the law be in force by April 2010 and have effect for parents of children due on or after 3rd April 2011. More information
