Returning to work after parental leave can be a big change, which is why we offer a gradual return to work period of four weeks to ensure you have the proper time to ramp up and re-engage in your work.

You may only take one (1) gradual return to work period per birth, adoption or foster care placement.

Please align on your gradual return schedule at least 1 month before your return to work.

Due to business needs, in some cases, managers may be unable to accommodate your preferred schedule, subject to any accommodation requests provided for in accordance with medical documentation.
