Congress notes:
1. That employers across further and higher education offer differential access to additional maternity and other parental leave and pay, including the length of time of qualifying employment required

Congress resolves:
a. To call on all education employers to provide equal access to additional maternity pay and other parental leave and pay at sector leading levels from the commencement of employment
