Poll: Which issue represents the biggest barrier to implementing your SPL scheme?

-

HRreview’s recent webinar on Shared Parental Leave (SPL) in the real world, developed in association with My Family Care, examines the challenges and opportunities that have been seen so far since SPL came into force on 5th April.

The webinar offers advice and case studies from Jennifer Liston-Smith, director, head of coaching and consultancy at My Family Care, Emma Codd, managing partner for talent at Deloitte, and Carolanne Minashi, head of diversity, employee relations and engagement at Citi, discussing the legislation’s impact on workplace culture, gender discrimination and HR practices.

We want to know what you think the biggest obstacle is to successfully implementing SPL in your workplace.

Our special edition takes a look at the key international HR and expatriated management issues and trends in 2015. You can still download the PDF here.
