Hospital is entitled not to renew contract after its expiry period. She will not be covered under ESI as the act is not applicable to hospitals in most states. If yes, she will get maternity benefit as per the provisions of the act.

Attaching contract for everyone's reference.
I understand hospital can terminate a contract but if the basis of termination is pregnancy do you think thats legal ? I thought we have laws to protect women from such discrimination.
Also m not sure what ESI is , can yoi throw more light.
Can someone also tell me if contractual employees are entitled to 26 weeks maternity leave ?

Hospitals in Kerala are covered under shops and commercial establishments Act. So ESI and EPF is applicable.

Hi
Act clearly says that the employee should be pregnant whether she is married or not. For maternity benefits we are asked to produce proof of pregnancy not source of pregnancy. If any employee get pregnant she will 100% eligible for all benefits under the act. Personal things never considered in the act.
