Maternity Leaves-urgent - Doc Download

Dear Friends,
Please tell me have maternity leaves revised or not.
Now it is for 6 months, please confirm.

Dear Meenu,
There was a discussion to increase the MLs to 6 months. But no order from the Government has been issued so far. Hence, we shall continue to have the MLs for 84 days, till further notice.

I wanted to ask how many days she has to complete in perticular organization for getting ML benifit? is there any perticular time period she has to complete?
Pls reply me soon

Hey...Maternity act for your perusal :)
regards - r o u l e t t e

Dear Sweta,
Sorry, saw your message late.
A Woman shall not be entitled to Maternity Benefit unless she has actually worked in the est for a period of not less than 80 days int he 12 months immediately preceding the date of her expected date of delivery.

ML is not yet revised. Discussion is going on to make it as 6 months. that too it for central government employees. So it wont apply to any private establishments

Dear All,
Two aspects;
Eligibility: Working of 80 days in a 12 months
Entitlement: 12 weeks (6 weeks before and 6 weeks post)
Hope this is clear.

ACCHR

Hi
Saw ur request late ? ML has not yet been revised, officially. Yes ! the govt is discussing to make it for a 6 months period...But wait for an official confirmation, till such time the old act applies ie, 80 days mandatory working is required & 12 weeks pre & post rest would apply..... happy mothering :-)

Hi guys,
It only 12 weeks of ML. It is the choice of the employee now to take this 12 weeks as they wish. First it was 6 weeks of prenatal & 6 weeks of post Natal.

Dear All,
There is no such amendment in which it is written that it is extended for 6 months.
However, A female employee can take 12 weeks leaves as maternity leave.
The 6 weeks first to be taken in pre-delivery stage and the other after delivery.
Hope this information will help u.
