Proud to a part of this 👏 ❤️ 👏
At BT Group we want to be a company that’s there for our people when they need us. In the past month, we’ve reviewed our policies and benefits, making significant improvements to how we support our colleagues. For carers, we now offer up to two weeks paid leave so colleagues can support their loved ones who have a disability, a long-term illness or older parents. For parents, we’re introducing a new family leave policy for any parent welcoming a new child. That’s 18 weeks’ full pay, then 8 weeks’ half pay and up to 26 weeks’ at the statutory rate, for every parent, no matter how their family is made up. And to support colleague wellbeing, we now offer access to a 24/7 online GP service and additional women’s health services, which includes help with menopause symptoms, cancer screenings and periods. All this puts BT Group in the top 33% of FTSE100 employers. With less than 50% of companies offering aligned maternity and paternity leave, BT Group is one of the leaders in our sector. Watch our recent video featuring colleagues from across the business demonstrating how important their family time is to them. It touches on the real-life experience of parenting and caring, so if you find either of these subjects difficult for you personally, you don’t need to watch it – all the information you need is in this post. #FamilyLeave #Support #Wellbeing

Our Leeds office has been busy fundraising for Scope, led by Jordan whose niece has cerebral palsy. Everyone who's met Nancie admires the bravery and determination she shows towards becoming more and more independent, despite limited use of her right arm ✨ They hosted a sponge throwing competition to raise money towards the charity, which provides support to people with disabilities and their families. (We can confirm that EVERYONE got drenched!) Those poor 'suds'! 🧼 Jordan has also been inspired by the way Nancie overcomes obstacles and so created his own, by having his hair shaved and braving a sky dive (video coming shortly 😅)
