Divorce and Separation Policy

Recognise and support employees going through major life changes

The purpose of this policy is to ensure that employees who are going through divorce, separation or family breakdown feel recognised and know how to access support to relieve these concerns. We aim to create an open and supportive workplace where managers and employees can discuss any issues associated with divorce, separation and family breakdown.

Implement a divorce and separation policy to promote a supportive workplace

By introducing a HR policy for divorce and separation, you can outline who is eligible for support, what type of leave or flexibility is available, and whether it is paid or unpaid. This helps to remove ambiguity and ensures a consistent approach across the business. In doing so, you promote a culture of understanding, fairness, and trust, helping employees feel supported during a significant life transition.
