Dear Human Resources manager,
I have been on maternity leave since June 10, 2012 but I recently received a
letter from Human Resources stating that my request for my maternity leave was
filed too late.
I am also denied the option to take an extended maternity leave as you now
require me to return to work on June 20, 2012 or resign immediately by giving
your office 30 days notice. I believe this is an unjust move on your behalf, as
I have specified before that my doctor has required me to take a maternity
leave due to pregnancy complications.
I have also sought legal advice on the matter and I have ascertain that I have
properly complied with company policy regarding the time frame of which I filed
my notice. Under the laws of this country, I am entitled to 2-3 weeks maternity
leave as a regular employee of the company. I have been a loyal employee of
Cardanis Soles Inc. for the last six years.
Attached are the copy of my maternity leave documents, a letter from my lawyer
regarding my rights as an employee and a mother. Also a document about the
recent labor and workplace laws in effect.
I will file for legal action if you will pursue to terminate my employment
based solely on my file for maternity leave.
As much as possible, I do not want to subject myself to any stressful scenarios
given my condition. I also do not want such an issue to affect my working
relationship with the company to which I have been a sincere and hardworking
employee.
You may reach me through my contact details and we can meet and settle the
matter at hand.
Regards,
Claudia the Pregnant employee
