paternity leave

Post by knoxycube »

is it two weeks on full pay for paternity leave? and also what happens if the baby arrives while i am on annual leave? does the 2 weeks start at the end of my annual leave? or do i get 2 weeks in lieu?

your paternity leave will start once you ring your office to let them know about the birth .
if you are one annual leave, you have two options:
1. ring your office at the end of your annual leave , so you will start your 2 weeks pat/l after your annual leave.
2. ring when the baby is born, you will start your pat/l , and the bookroom will credit you back your annual leave left, back to you.
