Maternity benefits act

Pradipta Nath (Advocate) 28 May 2018

The Maternity Benefit Act is applicable to an establishment where 10 or more persons were employed on the preceding 12 months.

But 10 permanent members or otherwise which has been communicated by the employer has no legal validity and hence subjected to challenge.

Full time or part time is no matter, if the Directors are also withdrawing salary, they will also be deemed as employee. Apart, please see whether she will be eligible for ESIC or not? then there is no need of Maternity Benefit Act!
