Dear HR people,
I have a situation where a Team Lead will go on maternity leave for 10 months. We are considering to offer an ‘interim’ position of one of her team members. This person will potentially take on the full Team Lead role for the time being.
We had these situations before, where it was a shorter period (± 4 months) and where not all the Team Lead responsibilities were performed by the team member. In those situations, we didn't compensate for it.
Now, however, I'm considering to compensate since its a longer period.
I'm curious to hear how others usually approach this?
Thanks in advance for your input!
