The employer grants a financial supplement to the statutory arrangement for parental leave up to four weeks of fully paid salary during the parental leave, if this is taken in the first year after the birth of the child.
In addition the following applies:
- the employment contract will remain intact during the paid or unpaid parental leave period;
- the employment benefits in that period will be determined in proportion to the (new) shorter working hours;
- the staff conditions will continue to apply in full;
- the pension scheme will continue as if employment had continued without the leave being taken;
- on termination of the leave, you will return to the last job held before the leave commenced, unless otherwise agreed by mutual consent.
