Policies
Family leave related policies and information aiming to support staff in achieving a healthy work/life balance.
As an employer of choice, the University of Edinburgh aims to support staff in achieving a healthy work/life balance, recognising that many staff will have family responsibilities and that all staff will have occasional need to be absent from work to attend to personal or domestic emergencies.
As separate employment legislation exists for many 'family' situations, the University has developed a number of policies as necessary.
Family leave related policies aiming to support staff in achieving a healthy work/life balance can be viewed on the HR web at:
