What are the flagship parenthood measures included in the agreement?
Legislation has recently evolved with the creation of additional birth leave, which provides for 70% pay retention during the first month and 60% during the second month. Our agreement goes further and guarantees ADP employees 100% pay for the entire duration of the leave for the benefit of all staff, regardless of their family model. This leave takes effect within nine months following the birth or arrival of the child in the household. We have also introduced additional leave for couples who do not benefit from specific leave after a birth, as well as a 10-week child reception leave paid at 100%, including paternity leave. Finally, we have added five days fully paid at 100% prior to birth for any employee engaged in a medically assisted reproduction (MAR) pathway. Our goal is to take an open and inclusive approach to parenthood to enable every employee, regardless of their path and family model, to benefit from one of these arrangements.
