Season One – Episode 6

Rethinking Family-Related Policies – with Greg McCaw, Chief People Officer, BKL

In this thoughtful episode, Helen Letchfield, co-founder of ⁠Parent and Professional⁠,  speaks with Greg McCaw, Chief People Officer at  BKL, about what it really means to build a family-friendly workplace — one that responds with compassion, not just compliance.

Together, they explore how organisations can rethink rigid policies to create a culture that embraces the whole human experience, from becoming a parent to navigating grief, caring responsibilities, and unexpected life moments. Greg shares powerful personal stories and insights, including how BKL introduced a gold-standard kinship care policy – giving kinship carers the same paid leave and flexibility as new parents.
