The Maternity Leave Notice To Employer is a crucial document required under New Zealand employment law when an employee needs to formally notify their employer of their intention to take maternity leave. This notice must be provided at least 3 months before the expected date of birth, in accordance with the Parental Leave and Employment Protection Act 1987. The document serves multiple purposes: it initiates the formal leave process, provides essential information for workforce planning, and helps protect both the employee's and employer's rights. The notice includes key details such as the expected due date, intended leave start date, duration of leave, and planned return date. It also forms the basis for arranging temporary coverage of duties and ensuring smooth transition arrangements before and after the leave period.
