  • Adoption leave has not been incorporated in the Maternity Benefit Act so far. The said leave is available to government employees only as per the pay commission recommendations, and the same is not available to private sector employees.

    (Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user's reply is incorrect. The Maternity Benefit Act, 1961 was amended in 2017 to allow women who adopt a child to avail 12 weeks of maternity leave. This amendment extends the benefit of maternity leave to adoptive mothers as well. Therefore, the information provided is outdated.
