📄 Maternity leave letter

Employer's Letter To Employee On Maternity Leave Selected For Redundancy (Provisionally)
The letter may outline the background and reasons behind the proposed redundancy, provide details on any consultation processes that will take place to discuss the matter further, and explain any additional support, payments, or benefits that the employee may be entitled to during this period. It will also provide information regarding the employee's rights, such as exploring alternative positions within the company, attending any relevant meetings or discussions, and the possibility of appealing against the redundancy decision.
It is important to note that this letter does not serve as a final decision but rather a provisional selection, meaning that the employee has the opportunity to engage in consultations with the employer and explore potential alternatives before any final redundancy decision is made. The primary objective of this template is to ensure transparency, fairness, and compliance with the legal requirements outlined by UK employment law during maternity leave and the redundancy process.

Maternity leave and pay
UK mothers can take maternity leave and receive pay to support them during and after pregnancy. This leave can be used to bond with their child, recover from childbirth, or care for a sick child.
Inform employee of redundancy
If an employee is planning on taking maternity leave, they should inform their employer of their impending absence in advance. This way, the employer can make arrangements accordingly. Additionally, informing the employer of an impending maternity leave may help the employee secure a job after their leave.
