Not sure what a husband is entitled to, I know that I can get 2 weeks leave for sure but at what level of pay is unclear. This doc http://community.netdoktor.com/ccs/u..._article_15117 says something about SPP so is this the max (instead of full pay) or as well as full pay?

My work gives me 1 week full pay and after that another week at SSP which is ard £100. After that you can take loads of unpaid.
I didn't bother with any of it as I cn make lots more than basic salary every week...and it all get boring by the third sprog LOL

In other words basic is 2 weeks at £100 a week, but some employers are more generous than SSP.

Correct me if I am wrong but I thought SSP was £64.35 per week.

It went up after I took my paternity leave to £110 (I think), definately more than £100 now.

Mate you just need to use up annual leave - the notion of being able to pay the mortgage on £100 a week paternity is ludicrous.

I did a deal based on 2 weeks off for a week annual leave deduction. I promised to stay on top of important things for the 2 weeks - few calls and mails from home etc. Worked a treat!

yep im 2 weeks full pay at current job, previous job was 2 days full pay and the rest ssp, I saved up loads of holiday, as it was to much money to lose. Dont have that problem this time round.

Looks like I'll have to take leave as my company does nothing for the fathers but as usual the mothers get 2 years off on full pay or what ever
