How to enjoy salary and maternity allowance during maternity leave?

This article will introduce the related policies of salary and maternity allowance during maternity leave to help female workers better understand their rights and interests.

Can't enjoy it at the same time

First of all, the salary paid by the company during maternity leave and the maternity allowance paid by the Social Security Bureau cannot be enjoyed at the same time.

Maternity allowance as salary

If the company has paid social security, the company does not need to pay wages to employees during maternity leave, but the company will apply for maternity allowance for female employees at the maternity insurance fund with the birth certificate, and the maternity allowance will be regarded as the salary of female employees during maternity leave. However, if the base of maternity insurance premium paid by enterprises for employees is lower than the average wage income of female employees in the previous year, the maternity allowance received by female employees will be lower than their wages during normal attendance, and enterprises need to make up the difference.

The unit has no social security and needs to be paid.

If the unit fails to pay social security, the company will pay wages according to normal attendance during maternity leave.
