The UK Government has introduced a groundbreaking statutory right to Neonatal Care Leave and Pay, effective 6th April 2025. This change will ensure parents of newborns needing neonatal care receive essential time off and financial support during challenging circumstances.
At SafeHR, we’re committed to helping businesses navigate these changes with ease and confidence, ensuring compliance while supporting employees.
At SafeHR, we understand the challenges of implementing new employment legislation. That’s why we’re working proactively to help businesses prepare:
We’re drafting a comprehensive Neonatal Care Leave and Pay Policy to help you implement these changes seamlessly. In addition, we’ll update your existing family leave policies to ensure alignment with the new law.
Our SafeHR software and payroll systems are being updated to include these new entitlements. This ensures you can manage leave requests and pay calculations accurately and efficiently.
Our experienced HR team is here to provide tailored advice and support, whether you need help updating policies, training managers, or handling employee queries.
