Dear sir,

Private school nor comes under the State Law neither Maternity Benefit Act i.e., Central law so it cannot be implemented in state run machinery. In Private organisations the Maternity leave totally Depends on the Company’s discretion. It is there willingness yo provide or not. No law stops them from providing maternity leave in the same way there is no law that can froce them to provide maternity leave

Generally in MNC’s they Gets the maternity leave . That too vary from Company to company and Organisation to Organisation, as it depends on the companies discretion.

private Schools women Employees Can Claim the leave By Forming a Association of Women teachers in your Area,by unifying all the private school women employees you get a Strong union that can collectively bargain with the school management for a specific maternity leave in every school in your Area.

As law do not provide any maternity leave but Law do not stop you to from claiming your right. Article 19 of Constitution provide that every person has the right to form a association and collective bargainning is the best way to get you demands full filled as it is a give and take process. you can try this its totally lawful.

Private schools staff to get 6-month maternity leave

Women staff members from government recognised private schools and junior colleges received a gift on International Women’s Day.

The state school education department on Monday announced that teaching and non-teaching staff from these institutions will get 180 days [six months] of maternity leave. They are currently entitled to 90 days or three months.

A government resolution (GR) dated March 8 said this decision follows the government’s decision made in August 2009 giving all government employees this extension.

The GR said that a woman staffer cannot avail of the facility for more than two pregnancies.

Women who avail of maternity leave will get an extra six months added to their working tenure. So, if a woman has 28 years of service left when she goes on a six-month maternity leave, then after resuming she can work for another 6 months after the 28-year tenure ends.

This decision will be valid in retrospective effect from August 24, 2009.

“The decision should have been made last year itself,” said Member of Legislative Council and founder of Lok Bharti Party, Kapil Patil.

Patil has been pursuing the issue for long.

“It was kept pending since the finance department claimed that it would put an additional pressure of Rs 38 crore on the government. On March 5, I met Finance Minister, Sunil Tatkare, and showed him how the calculation was wrong and he agreed,” said Patil

Minister of State for School Education, Fauzia Khan, who is also a teacher by profession, welcomed the decision. Khan said paternity leave should also be introduced.

“It’s good that women will get to be with their small children but children in school also need their teachers. So it’s time that men take up a more proactive role,” she said.

You may file a writ petition seeking your dues through court of law.

The Maternity Benefit Act, 1961 protects the employment of women during the time of her maternity and entitles her of a ‘maternity benefit’ – i.e. full paid absence from work – to take care for her child. The act is applicable to all establishments employing 10 or more employees.

The Maternity Benefit Amendment Act has increased the duration of paid maternity leave available for women employees from the existing 12 weeks to 26 weeks. Under the Maternity Benefit Amendment Act, this benefit could be availed by women for a period extending up to a maximum of 8 weeks before the expected delivery date and the remaining time can be availed post childbirth. For women who are expecting after having 2 children, the duration of paid maternity leave shall be 12 weeks (i.e., 6 weeks pre and 6 weeks post expected date of delivery).

The other discrimination also can be highlighted before the court and seek justice.
