First time pregnant and i work in a private company. Honestly i dont fully understand how maternity leave works, how many days, when it starts. Can someone explain how it actually went for them?
Its basically maternity leave, paid time off around your delivery. In India under the law its 26 weeks for the first two kids if you work in an eligible company. Check your HR policy, some give more.
Maternity leave. Legally 26 weeks paid in most companies here. Read your offer letter and HR handbook, dont rely on what colleagues say because policies differ.
It is paid leave for the delivery period, the 26 week rule helped me a lot financially. Just confirm with your office whether you get full pay and from which month you can start it, plan around that.
Maternity leave yaar, time off before and after baby comes. I took mine a few weeks before due date so I could rest. Talk to HR early and plan, the paperwork takes time.
