How to eSign a document: e-signature legality for Pregnancy Leave Policy in Australia

Parental Leave Pay helps families with a newborn or recently adopted child. If you’re a new parent taking time off work, you may be eligible. There’s 100 days, or 20 weeks, of Parental Leave Pay available to your family. If you have a partner, part of Parental Leave Pay will be reserved for them to use. The most one parent in a couple can use is 90 days. If you’re a single parent, you will get the full 100 days of Parental Leave Pay. The birth mother, or first adoptive parent to claim, can give approval to share Parental  Leave Pay with another parent in a way that works for your family. At least one parent needs to claim Parental Leave Pay within 12 months of your child’s  birth or adoption. The other parent has 2 years to claim. You can use Parental Leave Pay on any days you’re not working. This can include weekdays,  weekends, holidays or anytime you’re on leave from work. If you’re sharing your Parental Leave Pay, you and the other parent can take up to 10 days at  the same time. You can take your days as a single block,  multiple smaller blocks, single days, or can combine a smaller block with single days. And if  you don’t know when you want to use your days we’ll hold them for you. You have 2 years  from your child’s birth or adoption to use all your Parental Leave Pay days.
