Introduce Paid Miscarriage Leave

Petition Details

We urge the Government to support Angela Crawley MP's Miscarriage Leave Bill to introduce paid leave for parents who experience miscarriage.

Additional Information

Around 1 in 4 pregnancies in the UK end in miscarriage. At present, the Government ask parents who have experienced a loss prior to 24 weeks of pregnancy to rely on sick leave to grieve. That is unfair and must change.

Introducing 3 days of paid leave would be a major step forward for the thousands of parents who experience miscarriage every year, giving them the space to grieve without the requirement to return to work immediately following their loss.
