"Prince William, who works as a Royal Air Force helicopter rescue pilot, will receive two weeks, more than the baseline mandated amount of compensation during his leave given that he is a military employee. In general, the U.K. guarantees a weekly sum of £136.78 (equivalent to $209.78) or 90% of a father’s average weekly earnings – whichever is lower – for the duration of leave. "...Studies show that that providing parental leave of any sort increases workforce retention, boosts worker morale, and is generally good for companies’ bottom line."
