Abstract
The Employment Relations Act 1999, in particular, its introduction of rights to domestic and parental leave, has been put forward as illustrative of the Government's commitment to 'family friendly' workplace policies. This article considers the changes instigated under the 1999 Act, in particular, the provisions of the Maternity and Parental Leave, etc, Regulations 1999. It questions the extent to which these provisions may be expected to extend 'family friendly', working and, in particular, the pursuit of increased equality between men and women in the workplace.
