Parenting & Carers at Department for International Trade

Parents group - We represent full time, part-time and staff who work flexible hours. We work with line managers responsible for staff with parenting responsibilities.

As part of the Disability Network, we also have a Carers Group. We also have a Carers’ Charter

• which sets out all the policies and support available for employees with caring responsibilities
• help managers understand how they can support carers
• signpost further information and sources for support for employees and managers.

Carer's passport

If you have caring responsibilities, you may wish to apply for a carer's passport to help you and the department manage your work-life balance.
