Parents & Carers at The Property Group
TPG provides an inclusive work environment for our people. We want everyone who takes time off to care for their family to have a positive experience., and we do what we can to help that happen. While people may not be physically present, they are 100% part of our team and we give them every opportunity to feel included and supported before, during and after their parental leave.
Balancing ‘career you’ with ‘parent you’ can be challenging. It's a big change to your personal and work life. We've made a point of working together with our people to design a parental leave experience that best suits each individual, their family, and their career aspirations.
The parental leave entitlements described below sit alongside or are in addition to entitlements under NZ legislation.
- Paid leave up to a maximum of 12 weeks for eligible primary carers
- up to 2 weeks of paid partners leave
- Payment of KiwiSaver employer contributions while on parental leave
- Accrual of annual leave while on parental leave
- Remuneration review while on parental leave, and role security
- Flexible return to work
- Addition of children / dependents to health insurance
- Return to work coaching
Working reduced hours or caring responsibilities will not impact your ability to progress to a senior role if you wish to. Gender balanced leadership is a priority in our Diversity and Inclusion Plan, and we are actively working on ways to remove barriers to women and parents who aspire to senior management roles at TPG.
As our workforce changes and evolves, so will our policies and employee experience initiatives. This is just the beginning, and we are excited to see how we can support parents at TPG even more in the future!
