Discontinuous shared parental leaveEnhanced payShared parental leave

Shared parental leave: how does your organisation compare?

Is your organisation fully prepared for shared parental leave? XpertHR is conducting a short benchmarking survey on how employers plan to deal with shared parental leave and pay.

Under the shared parental leave regulations, which came into force in December, working couples with babies due on or after 5 April 2015 are able to share leave and pay, provided that each parent qualifies in their own right. Similar rights apply for adoption.

Take part in the survey now

Employers need to make decisions relating to shared parental leave, including whether or not to offer enhanced pay for employees on shared parental leave and whether or not to offer “shared-parental-leave-in-touch” (SPLIT) days.

Take part in this confidential XpertHR survey and receive:

  • a complimentary copy of the data report, as soon as it is available; and
  • a free copy of XpertHR’s 2014 maternity pay and leave arrangements report, emailed to you on completion of the survey.

In addition, all respondents whose data can be used in XpertHR survey analyses will be entered into a draw for the chance to win one of four £250 prizes.

The closing date for the prize draw is 30 June 2015, with the draw set to take place in w/c 20 July 2015. Please note that the prize is four x £250 and the winners will be notified by email in w/c 20 July 2015.

I'm the editor of XpertHR benchmarking. I'm interested in all aspects of HR data - how it's collated, how it's utilised and interpreted and the stories it tells. I'm also interested in the latest information and data on all aspects of the work of HR and related disciplines (whether to do with employment or economics) around the world – and how social media enable HR information and debate to spread and evolve across geographic boundaries. I’ve been part of the XpertHR team since 20 August 2001, working on the site in a wide variety of editorial roles as it expanded from its unnamed, pre-launch incarnation to the HR information powerhouse it is today. Further back, I worked as a writer at Incomes Data Services (IDS), and before that did time in research and writing roles at a banking consultancy in the City of London and at the Open University Business School.
