Paid Parental Leave

HBA has made a submission to the Productivity Commission, opposing the following:

1. That employers pay employees their paid parental leave entitlements, and then be reimbursed by the Government; and
2. That employers pay their employees superannuation on the paid parental leave entitlements,
   an amount which employers will not be reimbursed for.

Although HBA supports a paid parental leave scheme generally, it does not support the above recommendation as made by the Productivity Commission.
