Purchase cart Previous page Return to chapter overview Next page

 

Childcare leave of 3 (three) days per annum (separate from Paternity Leave) will be granted for the illness of a child but on condition that it is not taken together with Paternity Leave. This means that if a parent takes paternity leave for the birth of his child he cannot immediately after the paternity leave take childcare leave. Childcare leave may however be taken at a later stage if that child, or another one, is sick and needs the care or attention of the parent (up to a maximum of three days per annum).
