Dads to get equal parental right as women - 1 in 4 currently ‘don't qualify' |
|
One in four men who became dads last year didn't qualify for paternity pay, a report has revealed.
TUC, said of the 620,000 new working dads last year, more than 140,000 did not not qualify for the scheme - which entitles them to up to two weeks' paid time off. |
|
Many dads don’t qualify if they are either a) self employed or b) had not been with their current employer for long enough.
A working dad can claim up to two weeks' leave if they're expecting a child but Unlike self-employed mums who may be eligible for maternity allowance, dads who work for themselves don’t get a similar paternity allowance.
Also 41,000 dads didn't qualify because they hadn't been working for their employer for long enough. |
