This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir / Madam,
I am working in a Pvt. Ltd. Company as a HR for the last 2yrs 11months. My query is regarding Maternity Leave & benefits.
I am expecting and planning to inform my seniors regarding my maternity leave. But my company is not professional and I am sure they will not easily give me the maternity leave with full salary.
Please advise Shall I get the maternity leave and how much salary should I get from my company during maternity leave. And for how many days leave will be applicable.
Also advise if my employer is not ready to give me the maternity leave & salary then where should I lodge the complaint and what is the procedure? And how much time it will take to resolve this matter?

It depends upon the service rules applicable in that establishment, however, the maternity leave cannot be ignored by any employer as per rules/law of land. You are entitled to claim full salary for the maternity period but period may differ in your concern compared to some other.
