This is an enhancement to the statutory provision of 90% of average pay for 6 weeks followed by Statutory Maternity/ Adoption Pay for 33 weeks. Staff returning to work after maternity/adoption leave will also receive an incentive payment of one additional week’s pay per month for the first eight months. Enhanced Paternity Pay Qualifying employees are entitled to two weeks’ paternity leave entitlement at full pay. This compares to the statutory provision of two weeks’ pay at the statutory rate.
