Hi All,
I am working as a Senior HR Generalist in a private organization. We are following statutory policies like PF & ESI. We have a maternity policy and provide a 6-month leave facility to all our employees. However, this leave is unpaid if they are not covered under ESI.
We would like to understand the actual policy regarding whether the leave should be fully paid for those not covered under ESI. Could you please provide more details on this?
Kindly suggest additional information regarding this matter.
Thank you.

My dear friend,
As you are a Senior HR professional, I believe that reviewing sections 5, 5-A, 5-B, and 10 of the Maternity Benefit Act, 1961 would greatly assist you in formulating a comprehensive Maternity Leave Policy that aligns with the provisions of the Act for employees who are not covered under the ESI Act, 1948.

Dear Senior HR Generalist Friend,
The basic provisions of certain important labor laws are essential knowledge for every HR professional, including new entrants. I am sorry to say, but we are diminishing our reputation by asking such questions with our title.
