Parental Leave

Supporting You Through Life’s Biggest Milestones

At SYSTRA, we lead with care and we know that supporting families is part of building a connected team that leads with excellence and bold leadership.

Welcoming a new child is a defining moment, and we make sure our people are supported every step of the way. Our paid parental leave policy reflects our belief in equity, inclusion and the value of time spent with loved ones.

What we offer

14 Weeks Paid Parental Leave
Available to all primary carers, regardless of gender, family structure or how you become a parent i.e. birth, adoption or surrogacy. Our policy promotes equity and choice, so you don’t have to choose between care and career.
Up to 12 Months Unpaid Leave
In addition to paid leave, eligible parents can access up to 12 months of unpaid parental leave, this way you can take the time you need, without pressure.
Leave That Works Around You
We offer flexibility in how you take your leave whether in one block or spread across a 12-month period. Because every family is different, and your support should be too.
Inclusive and Progressive
We recognise that every journey to and through parenthood is different. That’s why our policy includes support for unplanned and challenging circumstances.

Creating a More Equitable Workforce

SYSTRA’s gender-neutral parental leave is a bold step toward addressing inequality in the workplace.

By supporting all parents equally, we:

Enable more women to remain and grow in their careers
Challenge outdated expectations around caregiving roles
Build a workplace culture that values balance, not bias

What our team says about or flexible work policy

“The most meaningful aspect of my leave was not just the time itself, but it was how my presence at home provided suitable care, stability, guardianship and confidence for my family at a moment of great vulnerability. The ability to work from home during pregnancy and after my leave had finished also gave an added layer of support to our family that was greatly appreciated.”
Binod Timilsina

Being home for those early, beautiful and demanding weeks with our newborn and young children meant everything. I could support my partner’s recovery, help settle into a new routine, and truly bond as a family. SYSTRA’s support before, during and after my leave made that possible, and gave us the strong foundation we needed for this new chapter.
