What is a Time off for Dependents Policy?
In UK law, anyone classed as an employee has the right to take time off work to help someone who depends on them (a ‘dependent’) in an unexpected event. The law does not say how much time can be taken off, or how many occasions. It simply says the amount should be ‘reasonable’.
Why is a Time off for Dependents Policy important?
It’s a good idea if the employer is as flexible as they can be, depending on the employee’s circumstances. It is also a good idea to clarify the Company’s position on what is deemed reasonable and the process employee’s should take to exercise their right to time off.
This policy sets out clearly how time off for dependents will be dealt with. This helps demonstrate that employee wellbeing is taken seriously and that the company will treat employees fairly and consistently.
