Dear Nisha,
Is there a Maternity Leave Application Form to be filled by the employee?
- Yes, they need to fill a leave application form.
Should the ID Card & Swipe Card be taken back from them during the leave period?
- Depends on your organizational culture. Generally, when a person takes a leave (for any purpose), they need not submit the ID card or swipe card.
A female employee can avail Maternity benefit under two categories: A) Under ESI B) As per Maternity Benefit Act if not covered under ESI. Please refer to the two acts. For any further clarification, feel free to write or discuss.
