Recommendation 17

17 Paragraph: 109

Government asked to consult on incentives for parents and workplace protections to support careers.

Conclusion
We note that many parents are disincentivised at work from having children, at a time when the country needs more young people to work and pay taxes to cover the costs of our ageing population. We therefore ask the Government to consult on what more can be done to create the conditions to incentivise parents to have children whilst offering suitable protections at work so that time out of work does not impact their career and pay opportunities in the future.
