Hi Members , With reference to maternity benefit act I need help on two points-For an IT start up company with total 12 employees of which 5 are women.
1. What should be the strength of employees and women employees for this act to come in force.There is so much of confusion as it's written that this act applies on organisation with 10 or more person employed, however many say that more than 10 women should be working in an organisation for this Act to come into force.
2. How many days a women must have worked in an organisation to avail maternity benefit of 6 months as per recent amendment.

It says 10 employees which can be construed to total number of employees only.
2. How many days a women must have worked in an organisation to avail maternity benefit of 6 months as per recent amendment. - Female employee has to work for Minimum 80 days before date of delivery to claim the benefit.

Is the MB Act applicable for an affiliate(this is in India) to an LLC (this is in USA).
We are a total of 15 members here. We are told that we are being paid a Professional fee for the work which we are doing here. We dont have a Salary account as such, a cheque would be issued instead. TDS system is being followed and no other taxes were deducted.

Dear Manjari, you are not sure whether you have been engaged as an "Employee" Please refer to your Appointment letter to get clarity on the subject. You have also stated that you have been Paid Professional Fee & not Salary.Please note that Professionals do not come under the purview of Act
