Curious About Maternity Leave Laws in India? Seeking Recent Updates and Insights

Dear Seniors,

I am looking for the Maternity Leave and benefit laws applicable in India. Please let me know if there have been any recent updates on the same.

Regards.

Dear all,

Coverage applies to all women employees, whether employed directly or through contractors, except domestic women employees working in mines, factories, plantations, or other establishments unless the State Government decides otherwise. Women who are temporarily indulging or unmarried are eligible for maternity benefits when expecting a child and having worked for their employer for at least 80 days in the 12 months immediately preceding the expected delivery date. For more information, please refer to earlier posts in the Legal Section.

With Regards,
