You've made your document, great work! Now you should...
Just having a Neonatal Care Leave Policy in place is not enough to ensure that your business complies with its employment law obligations. Make sure you adhere to the processes and rules you set and comply with employment law more broadly. For more information, read the FAQs for this document.
Make the Neonatal Care Leave Policy available to your employees. You could, for example, include it in induction packs, send it out by email, or put it on an intranet site.
The Neonatal Care Leave Policy is not a contract and does not need to be signed or agreed to by your staff members. You can ask them to sign an acknowledgement to show that they’ve received it, but this is not legally required.
A copy of your Neonatal Care Leave Policy will be stored automatically in your Rocket Lawyer account ‘Dashboard’. You should also download and securely store a copy of your Policy for your records.
Whenever the Policy is amended, keep a copy of each version that has been in force and a record of when it was introduced and how and when each version was made available to employees.
Relevant employees should also keep a copy of the Policy or have easy access to it (eg via your staff intranet).
