Can Contractual Employees in Delhi Government Take Maternity Leave?

I am a contractual employee in the Delhi government. One year has been completed, and the next year has been extended. Now, I want to take maternity leave in June-July. Am I eligible to take maternity leave?

Yes, you can apply for maternity leave as it is clearly noted under the Maternity Act. If the contractual employee has completed her 184 working days, she is eligible to receive maternity leave.

Thank you very much, sir. I have completed my one year, so I think 180 days are completed. Can I know what the procedure will be for taking these leaves?

Please ask your HR person to provide the Maternity Leave certificate. If it is not provided, please contact me, and I will help you out.

Thanks and regards,

I am working at Geospatial Delhi Limited (a Government of NCT of Delhi Company) in Delhi. This is a contractual job. I am not receiving any HRA, PF, or other benefits. We are only receiving ₹70,000 per month, which becomes ₹67,000 after TDS deductions. My direct reporting is to the Managing Director.
