Maternity leave calculatorTable of contents
Parental leave follows maternity leave and allows further childcare. It can be split, combined with work and shared between parents within legal limits.
Parental leave is taken after maternity leave. It is a separate entitlement that extends childcare time.
The length depends on the number of children and the planned split. Part of the leave is reserved for each parent, so planning ahead is important.
Parental leave can be combined with part‑time work, which extends the overall leave period. This may be convenient but affects the benefit amount.
The benefit depends on the benefit base and the chosen percentage variant. Check estimates in the maternity leave calculator.
Rules on sequence and combining are explained in maternity vs parental leave.
Usually you need an application to the employer, statements on leave division and a birth certificate. Confirm current forms with HR.
The mother uses maternity leave, then parents split parental leave into two parts, preserving the non‑transferable portion for each parent.
