E tū says thousands of its members are expected to benefit from the Government’s Families Package, which cames into effect 1 july.
The package includes:
“The Government is committed to addressing child poverty in this country and the only way to do that is to lift the family income,” says E tū Industry Coordinator, Jill Ovens.
“That’s what this package does in many different ways, including crucially in the child’s first year of life, and for three years for those on low incomes. $3,000 a year will make a huge difference towards giving children a really good start,” she says.
Jill says the extension of paid parental leave will also benefit children by giving parents, whether the father or the mother time to strengthen the bond with their baby.
“That’s all about giving parents choices,” she says.
Jill says the changes are complex and members should check the details of the package to establish their correct entitlements.
