Do Fathers Want Shared Paternity Leave? Interesting story this week from the BBC that fewer than 1 in 50 fathers are taking the new extra paternity leave.
On this topic:
- The UK government website has official rules on the procedure and allowances.
- Department for Business and Skills also has some interesting research on employer perceptions of maternity and maternity leave from March 2014 .
- Other materials can be located by searching the site more generally. They have just offered some useful official guidance on how to do this effectively.
- The Institute for Leadership and Management has some reports on work place culture acting as a barrier to taking shared leave.
- Earlier materials from surveys of women can be found on the NatCent for Social Research.
- Also worth searching is the Work Foundation website which has blog postings and reports covering work and work culture
- From a different perspective the Fatherhood Institute has lists of resources (some online) which reference the need for increased paternity leave and its positive benefits.
