Hi,
Under the MB Act, a woman is eligible to receive maternity benefit if she has worked for at least 80 days in the 12 months immediately preceding her expected date of delivery.
Women employed in factories, mines, shops and establishments with 10 or more employees, and other notified establishments, are entitled to maternity leave of 12 weeks, with full wages.
If you are come under purview of ESI, you can receive the Maternity benefits through ESI, else employer has to pay you salary for 182 days ( 6 months) and also should consider any extension request from the employee to nurture the baby but which will be on LWP basis.

hello,
I recently joined a private limited company at HR profile. As there were no proper HR department before so I am drafting all HR policies. Company comes under PF, ESI.
should I draft Maternity Paid Leave Policy for those female employees who doesnt fall under ESI scheme?
But management said that they don't want to give free salary, they are ready for Leave Without Pay . Are they correct?
what should I do?

yes, currently we have 50 employees..
20 years old company...its a private limited company, already cover in PF, ESI...
so i think my company has to give maternity leaves paid as per low....
and one more thing...
do we have to pay salary at monthly basis when Female employee go to maternity leave?
for example her leaves start from 1st June... so should we release her june
salary in month of July...as we will do for any other employee...
what about when employee after getting maternity leave payment at monthly basis denied to join company?
