At Cooper Parry, a big part of our position as the #1 Accountancy Firm to Work For rests on our benefits. Unique perks that reward our people, create a culture where they can be themselves and play to their strengths, and lay the foundations for a market-leading client experience.
We believe that life is too short for the ordinary, which is why we offer some truly amazing benefits designed to enhance your work experience and overall wellbeing.
We’re always seeking to understand what we do well here at CP, and where we can do better. Following the results of our Annual Benefits Survey, we launched four brand-new family friendly policies to help support our CPers to #MakeLifeCount. Those policies were Fertility Treatment, Neo-Natal Care, Pregnancy Loss and Parental Bereavement.
But we didn’t stop there.
Just before the 2024 Christmas holidays, we added to that family policy list, launching our enhanced family leave policy. But what does that entail?
ENHANCED FAMILY LEAVE POLICY: THE DETAILS
Any CPers going on parental leave from 1 January 2025 will be offered this new entitlement, allowing them to spend as much time as possible with their family as they enter an exciting new chapter.
Here’s what it looks like:
- Maternity – 6 months full pay, followed by 3 months half pay
- Paternity – 3 months full pay.
- Shared Parental and Adoption will follow statutory guidelines, but it will include the above enhancements based on eligibility.
ADDITIONAL CP PERKS
Our Make Life Count Policy gives you the freedom to Work From Anywhere, Anytime, Forever (WFAAF). So, whether you prefer a cosy café, a beachside retreat, or the comfort of your home, you can choose where you work best. Open Holiday gives you the flexibility to take time off that you need, ensuring you can recharge and enjoy life to the fullest. Our email curfew allows you to disconnect and unwind. And let’s not forget our 4.5-day work week, giving you more time to pursue your passions and spend time with loved ones.
Our comprehensive benefits marketplace includes Private Medical Insurance, Health Cashback Plans, Car Salary Schemes, and a host of other benefits designed to support your lifestyle, health and financial circumstances.
