What paternity leave policies do you have?

[Hettieboo]

My oh works for a Russian company in their small London office......our baby is due today.....he has asked HR (based in Cyprus?!?!) to advised of paternity leave since January and hasn't got a response yet. It is more than likely that he will have to write the policy so if you could share your companies policies, tat would be great!

We get two weeks which is pretty standard. I took mine a couple of weeks after the birth as there wasn't that much I could do until DW had established feeding.

My last job when I had baby had 2 weeks fully paid. I took 2 weeks holiday on top of that so 4 weeks off from date of birth. It was magic.

New job has 2 weeks, but only on statutory pay, so it wouldnt be worthwhile for me to take it.
