Can I transfer unused Shared Parental Leave (SPL) to a new employer if I change jobs?


Updated by MSF

No. If your employment ends before you have used all of your SPL, the unused leave cannot be carried over to a new employer.

However, you may choose to reallocate your unused SPL, in full weeks, to your spouse. If this reallocation is made after the first 4 weeks from your child's date of birth or Formal Intent to Adopt (FIA) date, both your employer (if you are still employed) and your spouse's employer must approve the change.
