Should I ask about paid parental leave at my job interview?

All job applicants are entitled to ask about paid parental leave. This is a 14-week period available to employees who, by the time the time a baby is born or a child of up to five years of age is adopted, have worked for at least six months for the same employer. Other eligibility requirements are set out in the Parental Leave and Employment Protection Act 1987. For more information see:
