If you go on a long family leave, it is recommended to agree how you will stay in touch with your supervisor during the leave. As the family leave ends, employees have the right to primarily return to their earlier work. If this is not possible, the employee must be offered a similar job as the previous one, in compliance with the work contract, and if that is not possible either, other work in compliance with the work contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pay on family leave<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>By law, the employer has no obligation to pay wages for the duration of a family leave, but many collective labour agreements&nbsp; provide for the wage payment during a leave.
