It’s all in the planning – cover for maternity leave

Aug 20, 2014

There was an interesting piece in ‘Pulse’* recently, talking about the difficulties partners may face when going on maternity leave.

Trying to arrange cover to minimise the extra workload falling on the remaining partners was described as ‘stressful’ engendering feelings of ‘guilt’ and ‘pressure’.

Given that, for maternity leave, there is usually plenty of time to arrange the necessary cover it is worrying that, even with weeks or months of planning, it can end up being a difficult process.
