In April 2024 a new law comes into effect allowing employees one week of unpaid leave per year to provide care for a dependent with long term care needs. Eligibility is not dependent an employee’s length of service with an employer. As a result, there will be practical implications for employers and new policies to be put in place.
This Acas webinar explores;
- The new law from April 2024
- Definitions of ‘long-term’ and ‘dependent’ for eligibility purposes
- Eligibility criteria
- How carer’s leave can be taken
- Notice periods for the intention to take carer’s leave
- Whether employers can request employees postpone leave
- Risks for employers of getting it wrong
You will also have the opportunity to ask Acas advisers live questions during this webinar.
