shared parental leave policy checklist

read the policy to make sure it meets your business’ needs. remember that, if you have any questions, you can ask a lawyer for advice.

just having a shared parental leave policy doesn’t mean you’ve complied with your legal obligations. make sure your business complies with employment law by, for example, upholding employees’ rights in relation to shared parental leave.

make the shared parental leave policy available to employees. you could, for example, include it in induction packs, send it out by email, put it on notice boards, hand it out in hard copy, or put it on an intranet site.

the shared parental leave policy is not a contract and does not need to be signed or agreed to by your staff. you can ask staff members to sign an acknowledgement to show that they received it, but it’s not legally required.

a copy of your shared parental leave policy will be stored automatically in your 2022世界杯32强抽签时间 account ‘dashboard’. you should also download and securely store a copy of your policy for your records.

whenever the policy is amended, keep a copy of each version that has been in force, a record of when it was introduced, and how and when each version was made available to employees.
