Free live webinar on the parent transition

Retaining employees through the transition to parenthood is now a mainstream tenet of most organisations’ talent retention strategy .

It’s been 5 years since Shared Parental Leave was introduced in the UK and Gender Pay Gap reporting has added further impetus to organisations’ efforts to retain women as well as men through the new parent transition. Many employers have reviewed, updated and introduced new programmes, policies and benefits.

In this webinar we’ll be sharing the results and insights from My Family Care’s New Parent Transition Benchmark. It’s been designed to shed light on changes to benefits and policy in this area, high-lighting innovative practice and the impact that organisations have seen as a result.
