Maternity and Paternity: The Management Guide
This video takes you through the process of working with an employee from the moment she informs you of her pregnancy, to the point where she returns to work, and beyond. It addresses motherhood and fatherhood at work, placing these in the context of managing your whole team, and building on your existing people skills to do so.
The resource introduces the 'A frame'. The A frame helps you to successfully structure conversations with your employee and has been developed especially for this course. Expert input from well known public and private sector organisations adds sound advice and insights on people management, legal, diversity and change management aspects of supporting new parents in your team.

Maternity and Paternity
When an employee becomes a parent it is a huge change in their life. The process starts from the moment you are informed of the pregnancy and continues beyond your employee's return.
How you handle the process as a manager influences the employee's well-being and their commitment to returning, as well as how the wider team and organisation are affected.
The aim of this resource is to help you successfully manage maternity and paternity transitions in your team at work.
By completing this programme, you will:
- Understand the business, legal and societal factors that increasingly demand best practice, at all levels, when managing maternity/ paternity
- Develop your awareness of the issues surrounding maternity and paternity
- Gain the confidence to manage maternity and paternity transitions effectively
- Be able to apply a simple and effective framework to underpin and support planning, communication and negotiations.
