Hi All,
Would be grateful for legal based advice.
Nanny initially wanted return to work after 6 months with child which we are not happy with and have mentioned this to her. (she has not given formal notification of return to work date yet).
However our 2 children will both be in school from September and we will not need her. She has now said that she might extend her maternity leave (which I know she cannot afford to do because she has told me) so that it coincides with this and then there is no job for her to come back to and she will be eligible for redundancy pay.
Essentially, I think she wants a pay out now as in theory we have to keep the job open for 1 year and it won't exist after 9 months.
But whatever the situation we would not want her back with her baby and she has made it clear that she has to bring her daughter with her.
I know we are not obliged to allow this as it is a change in terms of contract. My question relates more to her implying she is eligible for redundancy pay after 6 months as in theory the job does not exist for the full duration of her maternity leave.
Sorry if this is a bit rambling! But it is a bit convoluted!
Grateful for any advice/experience.
