New and Expectant Mothers at Work Training

New and Expectant Mothers at Work Training

This comprehensive online New and Expectant Mothers training programme provides both employers and employees with everything they need to know about returning to work post pregnancy and considerations for expectant mothers.

It’s important that the workplace is safe for everyone but special consideration must be made for the safety of new and expectant mothers at work.

Every year around 350,000 women in the UK continue to work after becoming pregnant and around 250,000 return to work after having their baby.

This New & Expectant Mothers Training Course has been designed to be used by employers, managers, expectant mothers and women returning to work after having a baby. It looks at the increased risks that pregnant women and new mothers may face and it looks at dealing with these risks in practical terms in the workplace.

It also looks at the risk assessments that need to be carried out and looks further into maternity rights, leave, pay and maternity allowance – all things that need to be considered.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

• Understand the need for risk assessments to be performed when you find out an employee is expecting
• Learn what you must consider when carrying out a risk assessment
• Understand the rights surrounding maternity/paternity leave, pay and maternity allowance
