Maternity leave is applicable only where a woman avails leave before and after delivery of a pregnancy. In normal circumstances, removal of the uterus is not covered under the MBAct.
However, in the very uncommon situation where removal of the uterus is necessitated due to a severe crisis immediately following pregnancy, for example, severe postpartum bleeding or rupture of the uterus, removal of the uterus would come under the purview of the MBAct. But removal of the uterus without any connection to a pregnancy complication will not be covered under the Act.
