I was previously on a temporary contract but the end date was late enough that I was still entitled to occupational mat pay (NHS). I am about to transit from the SMP only to unpaid bit of mat leave and my contract (which was extended to afford me 1yr mat leave as per national guidance) is up in about 3 months. Other than madly look around for another job, is there anything I could/should be doing.
I'm in a very unusual bit of the NHS with few jobs that I am eligible to apply for so something coming up near enough to me to apply for is unlikely (but I'm still hopeful). I'm a consulatnat so I've been lucky enough to save up for this eventuality, but looking down the barrel of not working at all after all the time, effort and energy invested in getting this far is really getting me down (and a bloody waste from a taxpayer investment POV)
My mum thinks that I need to sign on and said she did that 'to protect her stamp' which I think was something about pensions.
Any ideas?
