Hi,
As per the Maternity Benefits Act, 1961, as you rightly said it is 12 weeks. It is not appropriate to take an employee's earned leave for computing it to 12 weeks.
Over and above these 84 days of leave granted, it becomes an employee's choice to extend her leave that is allowed as a credit to her.
Hope your query is answered.

Hi Arthi,
According to the law, a female employee is eleigible for 90 days of maternity leave(84 working days). Any leave balance is credited to her account over and above the maternity leave.
A New mother avails the Earned Leave or Privilege Leave for extension of her leave upon completion of maternity leave. Under normal circumstances, most organisations accept this extension.

Hi Arthi Maternity Leave shouldnot count Earned Vacation.One important thing that we should take care of is that employee should not come to office within six weeks of their devlivery Regards Pramod

Does this act apply everywhere i.e. in all the industries? Can it apply in a service industry also?
This is an urgent request. Please clarify my querry at the earliest.

There is no doubt in it. Service industry also comes under Shops and establishment act for the purpose of Labour Act is concerned and hence it is also covered. Krishnaraj P R
