What happens if I’m made redundant?

You can’t be dismissed because you’re pregnant or apply for parental leave.

If your employer makes you redundant after you have applied for and started your paid parental leave, your payments continue for the full 14 weeks.

Your rights to re-employment end with the redundancy.
