Working While On Maternity Leave - Bean of Love - 22-04-2005

Quick question....

I was given access to my office email before I left for maternity leave last week. This was basically just so that any emails that I receive can be forwarded and so that nothing falls in between the cracks....

Now I received an email from my boss asking me for stuff that needs to be done... can she do that? Am I not supposed to be on maternity leave?

I only got access to help them out, I get nothing out of the deal except my SMP which is not a lot....

What do you suggest I do??

Bean ... to be honest

if you do anything for them they are abusing you

You are on maternity leave and that is exactly that

don't fall into their trap

its darn disgraceful

:babyroll:

I would get advice from either the citizens advice bureau or the dept of trade and industry. Have a look at their websites.

You are legally entitled to your maternity leave and your employee has to abide by that.

What a rotten place you work for, Beanie! :noway: I agree with Joan's advice. You have two weeks of compulsory maternity leave following the birth of your child! Click here for a link to Government Legislation on Maternity Leave.
