SUMMARY:COFACE working group on work-life balance 
DESCRIPTION:COFACE working group on work-life balance \n21 January 2025 9.30-12.30 CET\nRegister here\n  \nObjective of the working group \nThe aim of this working group is to bring together COFACE members working on work-life balance matters and disability rights\, to kick-start a discussion on the work-life balance of parents and carers with disabilities. We will discuss relevant EU legislation\, and collect information on challenges and good practices. This is an internal meeting\, with some guest speakers. The working language of the meeting is English.\n  \nEU context \nThere are two pieces of legislation which are relevant for this discussion.  \nThe EU directive on the work-life balance of parents and carers\, and more specifically article 5.8 which states that “Member States shall assess the need for the conditions of access to and the detailed arrangements for the application of parental leave to be adapted to the needs of adoptive parents\, parents with a disability and parents with children with a disability or a long-term illness.”  \nThe Directive establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation and more specifically Article 5 on Reasonable accommodation for disabled persons which states that “In order to guarantee compliance with the principle of equal treatment in relation to persons with disabilities\, reasonable accommodation shall be provided. This means that employers shall take appropriate measures\, where needed in a particular case\, to enable a person with a disability to have access to\, participate in\, or advance in employment\, or to undergo training\, unless such measures would impose a disproportionate burden on the employer. This burden shall not be disproportionate when it is sufficiently remedied by measures existing within the framework of the disability policy of the Member State concerned.” \nPlease note: This meeting is open to COFACE members only.\nFor further information\, contact secretariat@coface-eu.org \n________________________________________ \n
