Prenatal leave definition

Prenatal leave. The 2019 Agreement expands a team member’s ability to use personal leave to attend prenatal services, for their own pregnancy or their spouse’s pregnancy. Full time team members attending medical appointments with their pregnant spouse can access up to 22.8 hours of accrued personal leave for this purpose (pro-rata for part time team members). There is no longer a cap on the amount of accrued personal leave that pregnant team members can access to attend prenatal services. • Natural disaster leave: Team members are allowed to leave work where there is a yellow alert announcement for cyclones, or there is flooding or bushfires which pose a genuine threat to the team member’s property or create a need to care for their children. Time away from work is unpaid. However, the 2019 Agreement introduces the ability for permanent team members to access up to 2 days’ non-cumulative paid leave per year for use in these circumstances. The 2019 Agreement also introduces a number of new leave entitlements that team members may access: • Family and domestic violence leave: The 2019 Agreement introduces paid and unpaid family and domestic violence leave. Full time team members are entitled to up to 10 days of paid leave per calendar year (pro rata for part time team members) to deal with family and domestic violence. In addition, full time and part time team members are entitled to up to 5 days of unpaid leave to deal with family and domestic violence. Casual team members are entitled to up to 2 days of paid leave per calendar year to deal with family and domestic violence. In addition, casual team members are entitled to up to 3 days of unpaid leave to deal with family and domestic violence per calendar year. This unpaid leave is available where the casual team member has exhausted their paid leave entitlement.
