Did you Know?

Parental Leave

A proposal to extend parental leave from 18 to 26 weeks has been referred to the Oireachtas Committee on Justice and Equality following a debate in the Dáil.

The Parental leave Acts, 1998-2013 set out to provide unpaid leave to natural and adoptive parents of children of a certain age and also to persons acting in loco parentis to same.  Although there is no statutory definition of loco parentis, the expression is generally interpreted as meaning a person acting in place of a parent, e.g. a foster parent.

Eligibility for parental leave depends on 3 factors. These are:

  1. The Employee’s status as a parent,
  2. The age of the relevant child in respect of whom leave is being taken, and,
  3. The Employee meeting minimum service requirements.

Leave may be availed of in respect of a relevant child:

  1. Aged under 8 years of age, or
  2. Within two years of an adoption order where the child is adopted between the ages of 6 and 8 years, or
  3. Aged under 16 years in the case of a child with a disability/ long term illness, or earlier where the child ceases to have a disability/ long term illness.
