Thats just one of the variations of maternity leave I was suggesting. TheCrownless Send a noteboard - 20/10/2009 01:50:11 PM
That is fair. You just need to plan ahead and save up.

Sick pay and other things could have replaced maternity leave.
It wasn't a question about maternity leave really, it was about the employers responsibility to the employee in terms of welfare.
