Issue 782

Paid neonatal leave

A new law provides protection for workers with babies born early so that they can take a specific period of leave if the baby has to be cared for in hospital.

Protection undermined

The appeal tribunal has said that tribunals have a range of options open to them in disability cases, including the possibility of the person working elsewhere.

Belief and lack of belief protection

The law says that workers with certain views have the right to be protected, but that only applies if they were discriminated against because of those views.
