Time Off & Problems
Time Off & Problems
Family leave, and what to do if you're treated unfairly.
Maternity, paternity and other leave
Statutory maternity/paternity and shared parental leave and pay, plus your right to time off for emergencies.
Discrimination and where to get help
Your protection from discrimination, the free Acas conciliation service, and how employment tribunals work.
Redundancy pay, notice and what to check
Redundancy must be a genuine role closure with fair selection — statutory pay kicks in after 2 years, and visa holders need to act fast on sponsorship.
