Dear Meenu, There was a discussion to increase the MLs to 6 months. But no order from the Government has been issued so far. Hence, we shall continue to have the MLs for 84 days, till further notice.

Dear Sweta,

Sorry, I saw your message late. A woman shall not be entitled to maternity benefits unless she has actually worked in the establishment for a period of not less than 80 days in the 12 months immediately preceding the date of her expected delivery.

Thank you.

Hi,

I saw your request late. Maternity leave has not yet been officially revised. The government is discussing making it for a 6-month period. However, wait for an official confirmation. Until then, the old act applies, meaning 80 days of mandatory working are required, and 12 weeks of pre and post-rest would apply. Happy mothering!

Regards,
Vijay

Hi guys, It only 12 weeks of ML. It is the choice of the employee now to take this 12 weeks as they wish. First it was 6 weeks of prenatal & 6 weeks of post Natal.

Dear All,

There is no such amendment that states an extension for 6 months. However, a female employee can take 12 weeks of leave as maternity leave. The first 6 weeks are to be taken during the pre-delivery stage, with the remaining weeks to be taken after delivery.

Hope this information is helpful.

Regards,
