Maternity Benefits Act is an Act to regulate the employment of women in certain establishments for certain periods before and after childbirth and to provide for maternity benefits and certain other benefits.
There is no difference between permanent employees and contract employees as far as this Act is concerned.
Some excerpts from court rulings:
In a significant ruling, the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) has said that temporary, ad hoc, and contract women employees are also entitled to maternity leave and consequent benefits akin to regular staff. Rajasthan High Court.
The High Court held that maternity benefit is a social and legal acknowledgment for a woman and denial of such benefits on the basis that the employee is a contract worker is not legal; while also directing the employer to sanction her leave benefit.

Dear Friend,
If the contractor does not pay, the principal employer has to pay. The principal employer pays the contractor, and the contractor pays the workmen. You have to ensure that it is paid. If the workmen are covered under the ESI scheme, then ESI pays.

Dear sir/madam,
I am trying to log in to my UAN, but I forgot the password. When I tried to reset the password using the "forgot password" option, I entered the OTP. After entering the OTP, it prompted me to enter a new password and confirm the password. However, after entering the new password, it displayed a message stating "invalid password."
Could anyone please help me reset my UAN password?
Thank you.

The contract female workers have to be treated at par with the regular employees. Hence, they are eligible for maternity leave and benefit from ESI only. But, in most private companies, if the worker is found pregnant, they deny the rights of equality and terminate them. Later, if they report for duty after delivery, most of the private companies do not offer jobs as other processes like creche should be followed. You can raise the issue with the labor department for a concrete solution. Please refer to the Maternity Act for relief.
