Pobyt zony w Polsce nie jest przeszkoda do pobierania Paternity leave, musisz tylko spelniac odpowiednie kryteria
You can take statutory paternity leave if you:
- are an employee, with a contract of employment
- are the biological father of the child or you are the mother's husband or partner (including same-sex relationships); or you are the child's adopter or the partner of the adopter
- have been with your employer for at least 26 weeks by the end of the 15th week before the start of the week when the baby's due; or by the end of the week in which you are notified of being matched with your child
- will be fully involved in the child's upbringing and are taking the time off to support the mother or care for the baby
To qualify for pay you must also:
- earn at least the lower earnings limit (LEL) for National Insurance contributions
If you earn less than the LEL, (currently £90 a week), you have the right to unpaid paternity leave if you meet the other conditions, and could get Income Support while on paternity leave.
If you are not an employee, but are an agency worker, office holder or sub contractor, you will not normally have the right to paternity leave, but may be eligible for pay if you meet the other qualifying criteria.
