Hello everyone
I am seeking for advice.
I was working with a company as Manager -HR.
I was on maternity leave for 6 months but during that period I was working from home as I was the only person taking care of HR in the company. On request of the management I agreed to work from home also during my maternity and as per my comfort level. But I was working on a daily basis as a normal employee does. Now as the maternity period was about to end they said me to come and join the office but I requested them to extend the leave for next 4-5 months on humanitarian grounds as the baby needs me to take his care. No one else is at home to take care of him. The said to join the office on 1st Feb but then they send the termination mail on 31st January at 2.00AM n didn't even gave me time to go to the office on 1st Feb.
Please suggest can any legal action be taken against them as I have not received any maternity as such. N also I was terminated and not even asked to serve the notice period. For Full and Final they just paid the salary for January n no other compensation as they terminated without any notice.
Please help me out for this.
Thanks
