I am working parttime, 16 hrs, for a well known company. I am 10 weeks pg and thought I would look into maternity leave as I heard the law had changed with how long mum's can take off work, compared to when I had ds.
When I looked at my employers information it says I can have 26 weeks ordinary leave and get paid 'upto' 39 weeks. (Also says that I can have 52 weeks off, but only paid upto 39)
So the question is when do I have to go back to work? does everyone get paid upto 39 wks?
I have earned enough to get smp btw and have been in same job for nearly 8 years.
