Dear Jaya

Please refer Maternity Benefit Act, in which you will get the complete details about the Maternity Benefits to be given to a female employee of any organisation.

I am working in a private orgnisation from last 2.5 years and the moment i announced my pregnency they asked me to change my work location as Greater noida rather than janakpuri, where i am working since last 2.5 yrs, failure to this i have to resign and long time commuting is not advised by the doctor, suggest what to do in this?

Dear
it is very sad to listen this news,there are few organisation which have unethical approach.
if you want and you have not resigned you can take up the matter in court for stay of transfer.

pretty sad. very harsh reaction from them!! Instead of resigning you could have submitted your Doctor's certificate, stating that commuting is unhealthy for both of you and your child. Hence, has to be considered.

But since you have resigned, the matter has lost its weight. You may approach a court but proving it become bit difficult, and it depends on many other parameters. But, you may reclaim your job, through the court, ofcourse having a personal talk with the management of the company, stating the reasons and for declining the benefits you are bound to get...

Still you have chances if you serve them a notice reclaiming your job giving the reasons and circumstances that your forced to resign but not by will, taking up the arguments as advised by doctor was not healthy so had to take the initial temporary relief, but you still in need of job and claiming your right, otherwise the company will be forced to answer in the courts of law.


I do not say, you neglect such unethical and merciless management behaviour.....


So think and take the proper action.....

Happy motherhood :-)
