RSA Insurance is to introduce equal parentalleave from January 2024 in order to add to its family-friendly provision. The new policy will offer all parents up to 52 weeks of equal leave, 26 of which will be fully paid. It The post RSA Insurance to introduce equal parentalleave appeared first on Employee Benefits.
Looking at childcare provision in other countries , greater investment from government can bring down overall costs for employers to offer working parents more support. Some UK organisations have taken the lead from countries that offer enhanced leave such as Iceland, where equal parentalleave is considered the norm.
Employers with at least 25 employees in Delaware during the prior 12-month period must provide eligible employees with a maximum of 12 weeks of job-protected leave. Employers with 10 to 24 employees only need to offer parentalleave. Employers may require employees to use accrued paid time off to substitute for paid leave.
Other variable payments to check each month include shared parentalleave, contractual sick pay, statutory sick pay (SSP), statutory maternity pay (SMP), statutory paternity pay (SPP), and statutory adoption pay (SAP). It’s still important that people check these details closely though.
There is also movement in organisations’ diversity, equity and inclusion approaches, with fewer offering statutory-only shared parentalleave compared to last year. Almost half (47%) [of employers] offer enhanced shared parentalleave on the same basis as maternity, an increase from 2021,” says Jefferys.
Paid family leave benefit amount: Based on employee wages; maximum weekly benefit of $1,009. Employer contributions begin in 2025, and employees can start applying for benefits in 2026. Which employees qualify for leave: Employees who work at least 1,250 hours for a covered employer in the preceding 12 months.
However, ministers have made it clear that not all union demands will be met, and the reforms will not take effect until at least autumn 2026. Protections against unfair dismissal from day one of employment will remain, along with measures strengthening paternity leave, unpaid parentalleave, and trade union rights.
