SUPPORTING NEW PARENTS: REGULATIONS & SAVINGS

EMPLOYEE EXPERIENCE SERIES: SUPPORTING NEW PARENTS: REGULATIONS & SAVINGS

In our second blog dedicated to supporting parents in the workplace, we cover some statutory regulations supporting working parents. Detailing the costs parents face, we also explore how they can use their employee benefits to save money on the items they can’t do without.

Last week, we discussed how many parents no longer have a ‘village’ – a local network of support from family members. Our blog, Supporting Parents in the Workplace, shares ideas for how flexible working policies and a family-friendly approach can provide essential support.

For this blog, however, we’ll touch upon the statutory regulations for new parents before moving on to address the startling price of starting a family and how employers can help stretch salaries further when needed most.

In this blog, we take a look at: UK policies: shared parental leave, the cost of parenting, introducing two ways to stretch salaries, and employee benefits platform.
