TAKING PATERNITY LEAVE IS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS A NEW FATHER CAN DO. AMONG THE
MANY BENEFITS, DADS WHO TAKE LEAVE FROM WORK TEND TO BE MORE CONFIDENT IN THEIR
PARENTING, BUILD A BETTER EMOTIONAL BOND WITH THEIR CHILD, AND HAVE A STRONGER
RELATIONSHIP WITH THEIR SIGNIFICANT OTHER. MORE GENERALLY, PATERNITY LEAVE
ALLOWS MEN TO EXPERIENCE SOME OF THE MOST FULFILLING WEEKS OF THEIR LIVES. IN
SHORT: IF YOU HAVE A BABY ON THE WAY, YOU SHOULD TAKE IT. BUT YOU NEED TO MAKE
PLANS TO DO IT — WHICH IS EASIER IN SOME WORK SITUATIONS THAN OTHERS. SO, WHEN
YOU DO NEED TO TALK TO YOUR SUPERIOR ABOUT YOUR LEAVE, IT’S IMPORTANT TO DO YOUR
RESEARCH.

TIPS AND TRICKS
RETURNING TO WORK AFTER PATERNITY LEAVE? PUT A PLAN IN PLACE
YOUR RETURN TO WORK WILL BE MADE MUCH EASIER IF YOU’VE ALREADY SET UP A PLAN FOR
HOW YOU’LL TAKE UP YOUR PRIOR DUTIES — AND/OR ACQUIRE NEW ONES. IT’S CRUCIAL TO
HAVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS WITH YOUR BOSS AND COWORKERS BEFORE YOU TAKE LEAVE.
“THIS DOES TWO THINGS,” SAYS DAVID G. SMITH, AUTHOR OF GOOD GUYS: HOW MEN CAN BE
BETTER ALLIES IN THE WORKPLACE. “ONE, IT IMPLANTS IN PEOPLE’S MINDS THE
EXPECTATION THAT YOU’RE COMING BACK AND ARE COMMITTED — THAT THIS IS NORMAL
FATHERHOOD CAREGIVING STUFF. TWO, IT SETS SOME EXPECTATIONS THAT YOU MAY NEED
SOME FLEXIBILITY MOVING FORWARD.”
POINT BEING: IT’S UNLIKELY THAT YOU’LL PERFORM YOUR JOB THE SAME WAY AS YOU DID
PRIOR TO BECOMING A FATHER. AND THAT’S GREAT. YOU EVOLVE, AND YOUR JOB SHOULD,
TOO.
HERE ARE SOME MORE TIPS FOR GOING BACK TO WORK AFTER PATERNITY LEAVE.
