Paternity Policy and Procedure
This policy outlines the employee's rights to pay, leave and benefits whilst on paternity leave. It also details the obligations and responsibilities placed on both employer and employee to ensure the smooth operation of the policy, and therefore minimal disruption to the business or the employee.
In common with all policies, this policy should be signed by the most senior person responsible for its operation (normally the head of the Company) and all employees should be informed of its contents, with a central copy held on a 'Personnel Policy File' with all of your other policies and procedures. Once you have established this as Company Policy, please ensure you and your employees comply with it.
Other documents you may wish to consider implementing in addition to this policy include:
Flexible Working Policy and Procedure
Parental Leave Policy and Procedure
