Interest in extended paternity leave has soared—fuelled in part by recent Government consultations and high-profile political support, including from former Prime Minister Theresa May.
With current consultations on flexible working and parental leave/paternity pay closing soon (11th October and 29th November respectively), this is a crucial time for employers to understand the potential implications—and take a stance.

In this session, you’ll learn:
- What’s included in the current Government consultations
- How proposed changes may impact employer policy and compliance
