Hi all, I wish to take my maternity leave around the 20th of November (4 weeks before my due date) and am struggling as this is my first time, how to go about writing the letter. what does it have to say in the letter?
Also i wish to take my OML of 6months and my AML of a further 3 months. How do i go about writing this letter? Any ideas? Thank you xx
I wouldnt worry about this just yet. You need to provide a MATB1 first anyway. If you are keen to get the letter out of the way you just say when your baby is due when you would like to start maternity leave and if you are taking any annual leave before you go. Depending on where your working try to speak woth someone in Human Resources that can maybe give you a template or a list of things they expect in the letter as I imagine companies vary.
Helloooo yeah you have to get ur MATB1 form - u get it off ur midwife (i cant get mine till im 26 weeks) which is next week. Ask ur midwife - there great for advice.
