Hi,
We have an employee who has resigned whilst on her maternity leave. She has asked for her maternity leave to be adjusted against her notice period of 60 days. Is this advisable? What are the alternate steps that can be taken?

Dear deosthali,
No we can't accept the maternity leave period as notice period. Again if the reason behind this would be non fitness certificate or patience delicacy on to the work shall be considered.
Anyway do check with some better person who is good on to the labour laws..

Accepting the maternity leave against notice period is not advisable.It would be better to waive of the notice period and relivev the person immediately especially since it is a maternity case

Hi Deosthali,
I agree with Jeenarajesh, the purpose of the notice period is to allow the company time to find a replacement for the employee and to ensure the work assigned is completed and handed over properly. If the employee is already on maternity leave, the handover is already complete. It would be best to waive the notice period.
