Hi, Earned or Paid Leave is credited based on an employee's presence on duty for a period of time. The Maternity Benefit Act provides social security for a period that is irrespective of actual physical presence for duties. Therefore, a female employee will receive Earned Leaves during her Maternity Leave as well.

Dear CitHR Member, Ms. Pooja1, Your query can be answered appropriately if you let us know in which organization you are working. Government leave rules, i.e., Rule 43 of CCS (Leave) Rules, 1972, are very clear on this aspect that Maternity Leave can be combined with any other kind of leave.
