Senior Orthodontist
I am on a fixed term contract which started in 4 th April 2022 and is going to end automatically if not renewed on 3rd April. The hospital I work for called me and informed that they are not going to extend their contract beyond 3rd April and that it would be my last working day. But I am 2 months pregnant currently and they are aware of the news - only verbal and I have not communicated it in writing. I am sure they are not extending it because they have to provide maternity benefits. Is there a possibility I can avail maternity benefits under the Maternity Act? I do not intend to work post my maternity period if they dont wish to continue but I am trying to avail the benefits atleast as its a devastating news for me. Kindly help me on this.
