FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE –
Flow launches progressive new Parental Leave Policy
Parents now get to spend more time with their new-borns
GRENADA, June 13, 2019 – Flow has enhanced its parental leave policy to now include benefits
for mothers and fathers. The progressive new policy includes up to 16 weeks of paid maternity
leave for mothers and 8 weeks for fathers. It is applicable whether employees become parents
biologically, via surrogacy or through adoption.
Themed “Paid Parental Leave for Everyone”, the new policy incorporates the global standard
being set by its parent company – Liberty Latin America. It reflects the telecommunications
provider’s deep understanding that expectant parents also need time to enjoy life’s special
moments.
“Evolving our parental leave policy, quite simply, is the right thing to do!” said Ms. Kerry Scott,
Chief People Officer, Liberty Latin America. “We recognize that diversity drives success, and
family dynamics and structures have changed. Our new policy demonstrates our commitment to
a culture of diversity and inclusion and one that puts our people at the heart of our success.”
James Pitt, local country manager added, “This is a great differentiator for us. We recognize the
importance of parental leave and the benefits it brings. We believe that this bold step will allow
new parents to have more time to build stronger connections with their newborns. The policy is a
progressive one that aligns with our philosophy and culture.”
The policy will be in effect from June 1, 2019. Members of the Grenada team are excited about
the announcement and shared their own views on the policy and the fact that the company places
employees and customers’ needs at the centre of its business operations.
“Flow has always recognized family units as an essential part of its company culture and a pillar
of support for team members. Spending quality time with new-borns and family
