If your wife is not covered by ESI she is entitled to get maternity benefits as per Maternity Benefits Act provided she has been in continuous service for at least 80 days during the twelve months immediately preceding her expected date of delivery.

Dear Khola & Madhu,
The forum needs support from people like you becasue most of the institutes are not at all bothered to give an ample opportunity to the students to learn about the labour laws and its implications.
Thanks a lot for both of you for your excellant and immediate support to the HR colleagues.

Dear Mr. Khola,Madhu T.K.,Kameswar Rao & Vivek
Thanks to all of you for the help.
The management is telling her to allow only leave without pay.They are not willing to pay the benefit according to the act.But she wants to fight it back to get her right.There are so many instances I had earlier come across where the women donot get the benefit of the act due to lack of knowledge about the act.

See if your wife Gross Salary is more than Rs.10000/month she wont be entitled to this benefit. Only those whose monthly deductions happen can claim this benefit...one need to part of the scheme.

Dear Participants,
Maternity act never say that whether you or your organization are covered under ESI Act thanyou will not get only the benefit. All female employees are eligible for the benefit if she has worked minimum 80 days preceding last twelve months before the notice of delivery. Your wife is 100% applicable for the benefit. Please ask her to talk to the management.
