Hello everyone,
My friend's wife has been working in a Pvt ltd company (registered in Mumbai but has branch office in Karnataka) which has less than 10 employees. She has been working there for over 4 years as regular employee. The branch office comes under shop and establishment act. Though the overall staff of the company on Pan India basis is more than 200 employees.
Is she entitled to maternity benefit? The employment contract does not provide the maternity benefit and there is no employment handbook. I would be very thankful for your advise on the entitlement.
