I currently work 20.5 hours a week and earn £17500 per year. I started this job last year
I also do ad hoc work on a self employed basis for different people.
I am currently 5 weeks pregnant. The company I work for are relocating in July. I will be 25 -28 weeks pregnant when they go. I am not going with them as it would mean a 2.5 hour commute each way (5 hours on top of the 10.25 hour day I currently work)
Does that mean that I won't be entitled to maternity pay as I can't start that until I am 29 weeks pregnant.
Also, am I entitled to maternity pay through being self employed as well?
Do I have to stop all work at the same time or can I stop my job at 29 weeks and carry on with being self employed?
Thank you in advance
