Will employers’ agreement be required to change the sharing arrangement?

Question

Accepted Answer

You have 4 weeks from your child’s date of birth (DOB) or Formal Intent to Adopt (FIA) date to decide and submit your sharing arrangement. We encourage both parents to take this time to discuss and agree on your preferred leave plans.

If no arrangement is submitted within the first 4 weeks, the default arrangement will apply - the leave will be shared equally between both parents.

After the first 4 weeks from the child’s DOB or FIA date, you will need your employer’s agreement to make any changes to the sharing arrangement. When the change is made on LifeSG, you will need to upload proof of your employer’s agreement.
