STFC fellowships: rules and regulations
Maternity, paternity and adoption pay and leave
Fellows are entitled to take maternity, paternity, adoption or parental leave in accordance with the terms and conditions of the fellow’s employment. If requested, consideration will be given to allowing a fellowship grant to be placed in abeyance during the absence of the Fellow for maternity, paternity, adoption or parental leave, and the period of the fellowship extended by the period of leave. Consideration will be given to requests to continue the fellowship on a flexible or part-time basis to allow the Fellow to meet caring responsibilities.
