Hi all,
Wishing you a very wonderful year ahead. Please help me to get more clarity on the matters below:
1. Is it compulsory to pay a maternity bonus of Rs. 3500 to employees going on maternity leave?
2. If a person is earning more than Rs. 10,000, are they still eligible for the bonus of Rs. 3500?
3. Is there any difference between a maternity bonus and the Payment of Bonus Act? Why I am asking is, if an employee earning less than Rs. 10,000 goes on maternity leave, do we have to pay the bonus twice?
Thanks,
