Sir/Madam,
Kindly highlight the following:
1. Can a pregnant woman get maternity leave if she joined a PSU (Govt.) from another PSU through the proper channel?
2. Is a minimum period of service required for a fixed-term employee? If yes, how should it be regulated since we are engaging them for only 1 year? We cannot deny them employment due to pregnancy.
Thank you.

Hi,
Contractual employees are also entitled to 26 weeks of maternity leave. However, an employee may not avail of maternity benefits after the expiry of the contract period.
A woman employee should have a minimum of 80 working days to her credit in the last 12 months, counting from the start of maternity leave, to be eligible for maternity benefits.
