Re: Fulltime permanent position in a Third Level College. Maternity and "top up" paym
That 6 weeks bit is a recent 2006 Amendment which I hadn't read before. http://www.equality.ie/index.asp?locID=106&docID=540 Anyway anything other than that, ie one or two days a week or a month, only "If your employer agrees". In practical terms a lot of people can't afford to take 6 weeks or longer off in go. Whereas they might be able to afford one day a week etc. Its something to conisder. Also its easier to take directly after your maternity leave, trying to take it later can be difficult, because you have childcare arranged etc. Something to think about.
Eh? That does not seem to tally with the information posted on CitizensInformation.
