Access this on-demand webinar

Just fill in your email address below for instant access to the recording of this exclusive webinar.

Parental leave is a moment that matters. Success or failure here touches talent retention, career progression, wellbeing, engagement, employee experience, gender equity and more. For both individuals and their managers, planning for parental leave and the return to work can feel overwhelming, and hard to navigate. Keeping career and life on track afterwards can feel even more challenging.

Through this lively discussion, discover:

· The strategies Burges Salmon has put in place to guide, manage and support the series of transitions faced by new parents, their teams and managers.
· Hear how the firm’s culture, policies and practice combine with Bright Horizons’ Parental Leave Toolkit and Coaching to achieve highly positive impacts.
· In a competitive landscape for retaining as well as attracting talented people, consider what a truly integrated ecosystem of support looks like and how your organisation could apply aspects of this.
