Fixed-Term Contract Employees. Fixed-term contract employees who have at least 12-months continuous service with the Corporation, and who meet the eligibility criteria before the date of birth or adoption of the child, are eligible to receive paid parental leave in accordance with clause 6.7.1.1 (a) and 6.7.1.1
Fixed-Term Contract Employees. If you are employed on a fixed term contract, your period of maternity leave is dependent on your contract being extended beyond your current fixed term contract end date. If your contract is to be renewed whilst you are on maternity leave or will continue after you would be due to return from your maternity leave then you maintain your right to return. However, if the contract is not due to be renewed (e.g. you were covering a period of sickness absence or maternity leave) then you may not have the right to return. If your fixed term contract ends, then your statutory maternity leave will end on the expiry of your fixed term contract. If you qualify for Statutory Maternity Pay then this will continue to be paid to you. It is unfair not to renew a fixed term contract or dismiss an employee purely for reasons relating to pregnancy. Please feel free to contact a member of the HR Advisory Team for advice and guidance.
