EEF : What if we want to change our approach to maternity pay and benefits?

What if we want to change our approach to maternity pay and benefits?

A historic practice can mature into a contractual entitlement through ‘custom and practice’. This means that, even if your contract of employment and maternity policy do not make explicit contractual promises about your approach to pay and benefits, you may be unable to draw back from your past practice unless you have the employees' agreement. See the Employment Guide for further information.
