Maternity Leave Extended to 24 Weeks: How Does This Impact Your Workplace?

Now, the maternity leave is 24 weeks. The act was amended as per the amendment; a female employee is now eligible for 24 weeks of leave.

Sir, please indicate whether the so-called amendment has been notified and made applicable. It will be even better if you could kindly provide a copy of the gazette notification for the general information of members of this forum.

Stop misleading people with wrong information. The proposed amendment has been accepted by the Women and Child Ministry but is asking for additional benefits, which have not been accepted by the Labour Ministry. The amendment has not even been tabled before the parliament.
