I have been working for an NHS Trust since 2005.
Between 2005 and Sept 8th 2008 I was emplyed on a casual (bank) basis so had no contracted hours.
I am currently 10 weeks pregnant and the trust have said I am not entitled to maternity pay from them, only SMP.
Here's my problem, they have sent me a maternity pack and I'd like to know if anyone thinks I should be entitled to some pay here are their conditions:
'You have 26 weeks continuous service with this trust as at the 15th week prior to due date (11th Nov) - and 12 months continuous NHS service as at the 11th week prior to the due date'
So I would have 26 weeks continuous service by my 25th week of pregnancy
If they dont count my casual work then I think I am a week out of the 12 months coninuous service by 29th week of pregnancy, but surely if I have been employed by that trust and no one else then they could overlook one week
Any help or advice, or ideas how to work it out exactly would be a great help thanks
