What in case if company has decided to shut it's day operations, not night one and on Watsap they inform all of a sudden, and if pregnant employee mails for maternity benefit officially, her outlook p


A. An employer cannot dismiss a woman for taking maternity leave and cannot serve a termination notice to a woman on maternity leave which expires before the maternity leave ends. Also, an employer can’t change the terms of service to the woman’s disadvantage during her maternity leave.

Further, maternity benefit and the medical bonus will have to be paid to a woman who is discharged or dismissed during pregnancy unless it is for gross misconduct.
