The Family Friendly Rights Toolkit provides detailed guidance to the complete range of legislation that applies to parents and those who are expecting a child. The Toolkit will help you navigate the process and identify the decisions you will have to make. The example policies and other supporting documentation comply with the statutory rights to leave and pay.

The Family Friendly Rights Toolkit provides detailed guidance to the complete range of legislation that applies to parents and those who are expecting a child.

The statutory entitlements are collectively known as Family Friendly Rights but they are not so friendly for employers. They have over recent years become increasingly complex pieces of legislation to follow. Updates and new legislation seem to be always on the government’s agenda. All that make them difficult to manage but getting it wrong can put your business at financial risk.

This Family Friendly Rights Toolkit provides guidance on the statutory entitlements:

  • Maternity Leave
  • Paternity Leave
  • Adoption Leave
  • Surrogacy
  • Shared Parental Leave
  • Unpaid Parental Leave
  • Parental Bereavement Leave
  • Neo-Natal Leave – this is a new type of leave which has recently received Royal Ascent

Each section provides details of the entitlement and clearly sets out the steps the employer and employee need to follow.

Dependants are not necessarily children and therefore Time Off For Dependants is covered separately. The Right to Request Flexible Working is no longer limited to parents and therefore this is now covered separately.
