Dear Senior
I have joined in a private concern on April\'2010. I am in two years probation period now.
Whenever I have joined I was unmarried. But now I am nine months pregnent & my due date is 18 july 2012.
I have already given a notice to my employer on regarding this matter but he has replied that now I am in probation period & as per
maternity benefit act I am not entitled to get the benefit.
If is is payble leave then how much can I get during this leave? (my salay 14000/- pm)
I am on ESI scheme. So shall I get any advantage from ESI?
pls. give details according to maternity leave act 1961 with mentioning section & undersection as I can give kind attention of my employer.

The period of 6 weeks for which maternity benefit is payable for miscarriage under the above provision may be in one spell or more, but it must be within the range of 6 weeks from the date immediately following the date of miscarriage.

"2 years of probabtion" What is this, is this is a joke? This is a clear case of fooling employees by the said management in not paying them their rightful dues.

I believe, in case an employer does not give any letter to you after 6 months then you are deemed to be confirmed as neither extension of probation, nor confirmation has been given. Regards Rashmi

There is no bar for a woman employee to recive maternity benfit during probatin provided the contributory conditions as Devi explained are fulfiled.For any reason, you are not eligible to claim maternity benfit under ESI scheme, you can claim the same under Maternity bnefit Act 1961, since I trust you must have put in minimum80 days of service in the 12 months preceding your expected date of delivery.You can bring these provisions to the notice of your higher authorities. Do not worry. The Acts forbid the employer to take any action against you during pregnanacy.

Since you are covered under ESI, you can not claim any maternity benefits from the employer. PVVB.KUMAR
