Technical guidance on changes to adoption leave and pay 17 April 2015
Technical guidance for employers has been published on the changes to adoption leave and pay which came into force on 5 April 2015.
The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) has published technical guidance for employers on the changes to adoption leave and pay, which came into force on 5 April 2015.
A summary of the new rights is as follows:
Adopters are now entitled to similar rights to birth parents:
Adoption leave is now a ‘day 1 right’ (i.e. employees will not need to have a qualifying period of service); and Statutory adoption pay is paid at the earnings related level in the first 6 weeks – mirroring the arrangements for statutory maternity pay. The qualifying requirements for statutory adoption pay are unchanged.
New groups of parents now qualify for adoption leave and pay:
Dual approved prospective adopters who have a child placed with them under section 22C of the Children Act 1989 with a view to them adopting that child (this is sometimes referred to as fostering for adoption); and The intended parents in a surrogacy arrangement where they are eligible for and intend to apply for a Parental Order (or where they have already obtained such an order) making them the legal parents of the child that they are having with the help of a surrogate mother. These parents are referred to as ‘Parental Order parents’ in this guidance. New groups of parents now qualify for paternity leave and pay: The partner of the dual approved adopter or, in the case of joint dual approved adoptions, the parent who will not take adoption leave and pay; and One of the Parental Order parents (the parent that doesn’t take adoption leave and pay).
Eligible employees and agency workers with 12 weeks service are now entitled to time off to attend adoption meetings:
