Lush's six-month parental leave exposes the retail benefits gap

Cosmetics retailer Lush is offering six months of fully paid parental leave to its staff, a policy that stands out sharply against standards across the retail sector, where paid parental leave is often minimal or unavailable, especially for shop-floor workers. The move is drawing attention to how far most retailers lag behind in family benefits and is prompting debate about whether others will follow.

Why now: Lush's generous policy highlights how unusual such benefits are in retail, prompting comparisons and debate about industry standards.
