New rules allow new parents to spread out their leave says NASDAL

Dental practice-owners may need to draw on their powers of compromise in order to comply with the new rules on Shared Parental Leave (‘SPL’), says NASDAL. This allows parents to share up to 50 weeks’ leave in their child’s first year.
