I would please like to know:
1) Your parental leave policies, including paternity leave and pay and maternity leave and pay. If you have different policies for medical and non-medical staff, please include all different policies.
2) In the last three years for which you have data, how many staff members were eligible for paternity leave?
3) In the last three years for which you have data, how many staff members took paternity leave, and for how many weeks on average?
4) In the last three years for which you have data, what was the average salary for staff who were eligible for paternity leave? (If it is not possible to provide this, please provide the average salary for all the trust’s staff instead)
For queries 2 - 4, please provide separate data for medical and non-medical staff, but if this is not possible, please provide combined data for both instead.
If you are unable to answer all of these questions, please prioritise answering them in order.
