3.13 PARENTAL LEAVE

st
The Company offers 22 weeks unpaid Parental Leave (Increasing to 26 weeks from 1 September 2020) for the
purposes of caring for each qualifying child. In general, you will have the right to parental leave if you have one year's
continuous employment and:
• You are the natural or adoptive parent of a child who will be under the age of twelve at the end of the
period of Parental Leave; or
• You are the parent of a child with a disability who will be under the age of sixteen at the end of the
period of Parental Leave; or
• You have adopted a child who was aged between six years and eight years at the date of the adoption
order and the period of Parental Leave will end less than two years after the date of the order.

The employee may take their leave in one continuous period or in two separate blocks of a minimum of six weeks each.
However parental leave may not be broken up;

*unless the Company agrees to allow you "Broken Leave" (blocks of leave broken into individual days or weeks or taken
in the form of reduced hours at work**).

**Broken Parental Leave If the Company agrees to grant same shall be calculated as follows: -
(a) Your initial entitlement will be the equivalent of the total number of hours worked by you in the 14 weeks period
ending immediately before the week in which you propose to commence your first period of leave.
(b) On the second and subsequent occasions that you take your leave your entitlement will be the equivalent of the
hours worked during the 14 weeks period ending immediately before you take that period of leave averaged with any
previous 14-week periods ending immediately prior to any leave previously taken less the total number of hours leave
already taken.
