NEW CARERS LEAVE RIGHTS BECOME LAW

Carers in England, Scotland and Wales are now entitled to one week’s unpaid leave to fulfil their caring responsibilities.

The Carer’s Leave Act became law on Saturday, granting 2.3 million carers (source: Carer’s UK) new rights to leave from their first day of employment.

Working carers – which includes anyone providing or arranging care for a relative or dependent – will be able to take the unpaid leave in half or full days.

Read about the Carer’s Leave Act in more detail on the Carers UK website.
