Given the increasing protection, coverage and updates surrounding maternity, paternity and shared parental leave legislation, it is imperative to have up-to-date, bespoke processes and policies that enable you to deal with issues at an early stage, to minimise your risk and expenditure.
Family friendly rights
Our employment lawyers will support you in drafting parental leave policies that cover maternity, paternity, shared parental leave, adoptive leave, time off for dependents, flexible working and notification periods.
Where required, our Employment team can provide training, either remotely or on-site, to enable you to deal with any grievances or issues that may arise in maternity or paternity situations and to ensure that you feel confident in dealing with parental leave requests.
Our employment law experts continually develop their knowledge of updates to parental leave legislation to enable them to help you to minimise the number of parental leave disputes that you face and to ensure a smooth transition back into the workplace for your employees.
Family friendly rights
Having supported numerous multi-national organisations, listed companies and public bodies with complicated parental leave legislation and the surrounding employment law requirements, our solicitors are highly experienced in guiding clients through the process of evaluating their pay options and calculating employee entitlements and benefits.
In addition, they also provide advice to clients on responding to parental leave discrimination and sex discrimination grievances and have successfully defended them against tribunal claims.
