The Law Society Gazette has reported that Irwin Mitchell has announced a number of changes to their pay policies:
Effective immediately, employees at Irwin Mitchell can take four weeks’ paid paternity leave regardless of position in the firm or length of service.
Further changes include removing the limit for staff taking time off to undertake fertility treatment and offering the chance to take parental leave as single days, rather than in one block.
The firm said it will take away all limits on adoption, maternity and shared parental pay so staff have access to the same benefits from the day they join. Those fostering can also have access to five days’ additional leave.
