As an HR professional in Quebec, it’s essential to understand the provincial labour standards and the Québec Parental Insurance Plan (QPIP) to support employees taking parental leave.

Eligible employees are entitled to maternity, paternity, parental, and adoption leave, with job protection ensuring they can return to their role under the same conditions. Your responsibilities include ensuring compliance with leave entitlements, notice requirements, benefits continuation, and job security obligations.

By staying informed, you can help employees navigate their leave confidently while maintaining workplace efficiency and legal compliance.
