Hi members,

If an employee goes on maternity leave in March, also extends her leave and adjusts it against PLs, and later resigns, what would be her last day with us for our records as well as the experience letter we will issue to her? Will it be March or July?

Hi Seema, I think her last working date will be March only. You can add the comment in the experience letter that she went for maternity leave from March to July.

If she goes for maternity leave and doesn't come back or resigns, is it compulsory that we have to pay maternity benefits. How can we pay the maternity salary? Can we pay monthly after her return from her maternity leave, or do we have to pay in the same period when she applied for maternity leave?

Also, tell me if it is compulsory to pay maternity benefits if she resigns after completing maternity leave.
