I'm just wanting to see if someone can clarify the maternity leave with my employer for me. (FTM so sorry for loads of questions 😬)
I am currently 27+5weeks due date 26th September.
I told my employer I was pregnant at 7 weeks.
I gave my Mat B1 form to them when I was 23 weeks.
I have had no chat with them about when my maternity leave will start, they do not know when I am thinking of starting it.
If I am still owed annual leave am I entitled to take that (by adding it onto the start of my maternity leave) before I go on maternity?
The other thing is, as I understand it, my maternity leave pay is calculated from my average earnings in the 8 weeks before the end of my 25th week of pregnancy. If this is correct it will be calculated on my furlough pay. Should they be using the 80% or 100% of pay for those 8 weeks? I'm just a little bit concerned as they are a small company, as far as I'm aware I'm the first in a long time that has has to go off on maternity, and would like to get all of my ducks in a row first before I go and talk to them.
I don't even know how much annual leave I'm owed at the moment. I get it's all been a bit of uproar in the past 3 months but I'm just worrying I guess.
Thank you to anyone that can help.
