Maternity Leave for Senior Residents in Railway Hospitals

July 17, 2023 by Eliza Leave a Comment

The Government of India’s Ministry of Railways has issued revised terms and conditions for Senior Residents working in Railway Hospitals. According to the new guidelines, Senior Residents will now be entitled to maternity leave of 26 weeks. This leave can be taken either before the expected delivery date or for the remaining duration of their contract period, whichever is less. To be eligible for this maternity leave, the Senior Resident must have completed a working period of at least 80 days in the twelve months preceding the expected delivery date at the Railway hospital. These changes are in accordance with the Maternity Act, 1961. The revision has been approved by the competent authority in the Railway Board and the concurrence of the Finance (Establishment) Directorate of the Ministry of Railways has been obtained.
