Hi, I would like to know when the maternity payment should be paid to the employee—every month as salary or in a lump sum after she returns from maternity leave.
As per the Maternity Benefit Act of 1961, a beneficiary can receive the payment in advance, but only after the expected delivery date provided by a recognized medical practitioner (Gynecologist).
Regards
