Maternity Leave

Solicitor Michelle Loughnane joins Síomha to explain what exactly new mothers and fathers are entitled to in the workplace. They go through the difference between parental and parents leave, when to break the news to your bosses and whether you’re entitled to a longer lunch to squeeze in some pregnancy pilates... Síomha also discusses the difficulties with maternity leave for those who are self employed, and how that influenced her decision to step away from some work commitments earlier this year.

Don’t rely on this podcast for medical decisions, and if you think you’re having a medical emergency, get help right away.
