Family hospice leave and part-time family hospice leave enable people to provide terminal care for close relatives or seriously ill children.
Employees have the option to adjust their working hours or take a temporary leave of absence to care for a dying relative or seriously ill child.
People who take family hospice leave or part-time family hospice leave are entitled to a care leave allowance. Under certain conditions, they may also receive financial support from the Family Hospice Leave – Hardship Fund.
