My employer in Jaipur denied my maternity leave, what can I do?

Denial of maternity leave violates Rajasthan Rent Control Act 2001 and the Maternity Benefit Act, and is actionable before the labour court and consumer commission. The Rajasthan High Court has held that maternity leave is a fundamental right and employers cannot terminate or penalize women for availing it.

In Jaipur, you can file a complaint with the labour commissioner and a consumer complaint for deficiency. The Rajasthan High Court has directed full back wages and reinstatement for women terminated during pregnancy.

Under Rajasthan Rent Control Act 2001, the employer is liable for compensation and penalty for violating maternity rights. You should preserve the appointment letter, medical certificate, and communication with HR for your complaint in Jaipur.
