Training to Support Expecting Parents
Preparing for the arrival of a new baby is an exciting but sometimes overwhelming journey. Employers have the opportunity to alleviate some stress by helping their employees feel more prepared for their parental leave. This informational training could be sent out to employees as soon as they share that they are expecting a new baby. The course was built in Articulate Rise, which means that it is mobile responsive, making it easy for employees to reference at any time as they prepare for their parental leave.
The brief training includes:
- An explanation of the parental leave benefits
- The links and forms needed to request leave
- Information on family benefits such as medical insurance and childcare
- How the business will work with the employee to create a parental leave plan
- A checklist the employee can use to prepare for their leave

Providing this information upfront and all in one place, rather than an employee needing to track it down from several different locations or people, will help an expecting parent make informed decisions and adequately prepare for maternity or paternity leave. It also ensures that the employer has communicated all expectations regarding leave so that there are no surprises later. Providing this information and working together with the employee to prepare for their leave will also help employees feel valued and supported, which leads to higher engagement and productivity as well as loyalty to the company.
