New Rule Of ML & Child Care Policy

Hi! Frnds Today i have read in TOI & also heard in NDTV regarding the new rule on Maternity leave and Child Care Policy. As per the rule ML has been increased from 3 months to 6 months. And as per the Child Care Policy any women can take 2 years paid leave to take care of her child anytime till the child comes to the age of 18. My doubt is that whether this rule is applicable only to the government women employee or it would also be applicable to the women working in the private sector. Please do let me know about this incase any of you have any updates on the same. Thanks & Regards Chitra

Dear, This rule is applicable only for female Govt employees , as far as I know not yet applicable for PSUs. Preeti

in line with preeti...only female govt employees can enjoy this benefit..never expect this from a private co., they would rather subtly tell the expecting employee to leave her job n hire another in her place.. rather than paying 2 years salary for no work done..ye pvt. companies to baniye ki dukaan hain. apna munafa ho to sab theek hai!!!:!::lol:

Hi! Frnds Thanks for you opinion. Its rite that the pvt companies wont give 2 yrs paid leave but they could atleast increase the ML from 3 mths to 6 months. It would be a benefit to the company. Coz if they employee any new person they have to give them training which would atleast take 6 months. Regards Chitra
