Dear Angi,
She is entitled to maternity benefits if she has completed 80 days of service in the establishment in the past 12 months as per the MB Act of 1961. Furthermore, the employer has the responsibility of raising employee awareness: The MB Amendment Act of 2017 makes it mandatory for employers to educate women about the maternity benefits available to them at the time of their appointment.
Please advise her to inform the employer of her entitlement and firmly reject any suggestions of resignation.
Thank you.
