Conditions of Employment
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what assessment she has made of the implications for her policies of the report by the Chartered Management Institute entitled The CMI Managers Voice September 2024: Managers Voice Pulse Point Poll, published in September 2024.
Answered by Kate Dearden
The Government has not made a specific assessment of the implications of the report for the upcoming bereavement leave entitlement.
Due to the sensitive nature of bereavement leave we are currently consulting on details of the final entitlement, engaging with key stakeholders to make sure bereavement leave is constructed with the needs of both employers and employees at the forefront.
An impact assessment of the policy has been conducted, which covers the impact on businesses and workers. This is available on gov.uk.
