These Are Things You Need to Prepare Before Leave Giving Birth
In addition to preparing for labor, pregnant women (pregnant women) who work in the office also need to prepare maternity leave . In order to give maternity leave uninterrupted with office affairs, there are a number of things that need to be carefully prepared .
In Indonesia, based on Law No. 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower, female workers are entitled to leave on leave for 1.5 months before and 1.5 months after giving birth or about 90 working days. For maternity leave to run calmly without the need to abandon work, let's , prepare everything well!
When is the Right Time to Take Birth Leave?
Every pregnant woman must have their own considerations regarding when is the best time to take maternity leave. Some have taken maternity leave at 7-8 months of gestation, but there are also those who just leave a few days before the estimated date of labor.
Even though it has been set 1.5 months before and 1.5 after delivery, but if in accordance with company regulations, Bumil can discuss the agreement on shifting time off, as long as the accumulation of time remains for 3 months.
For example, if you want to spend more time with your little one after giving birth, pregnant women can apply for leave starting two weeks before the birth period and spend the rest after giving birth.
In addition, based on the explanation of Article 82 paragraph (1), if necessary, Bumil can request an extension of the rest period for the obstetrician's statement letter, both before and after giving birth. In addition, if premature labor occurs, it does not mean that maternity leave will expire.
Some of the following things can Bumil be taken into consideration to determine when to take maternity leave:
- Power or ability of pregnant women to work in the final trimester of pregnancy
- Disorders or complications of pregnancy experienced
- Type of work and the level of stress that must be faced
What do you need to do before childbirth leave?
In order to enjoy maternity leave comfortably without leaving a professional attitude to work, the following are guidelines that pregnant women can follow:
1. Check company policy
Pregnant women can discuss with Human Resources (HR) or Human Resources (HR) in the office, to ask questions about maternity leave. This is important because policies for employees who work on a contract are different from those who are permanent employees.
In addition, the scale of the company can determine the policies adopted. The duration of pregnant women working in the company is also likely to be influential. By understanding company policy, Bumil can adjust maternity leave plans with applicable regulations.
2. Communication with superiors
If needed, Bumil can communicate with superiors regarding work plans before leave. This includes the transfer of duties and job responsibilities to other employees who will replace.
3. Set how to contact during leave
Sometimes pregnant women are still needed to be contacted during the leave. Think of the way your coworkers or superiors contact Bumil when needed, without making Bumil bothered.
For example, only through electronic mail (e-mail) or telephone contact at certain hours. In addition, pregnant women can also install notification reminders in e-mails that Bumil is on leave.
4. Prepare documents for replacement employees or coworkers
To facilitate the work of substitute employees and coworkers, pregnant women can prepare documents or collections of records relating to pregnant women work. Especially for jobs that are sustainable or still in the process of completion.
5. Inform clients
If the job requires Bumil to often interact with clients or third parties, then Bumil needs to inform the parties of the leave. Make sure they know who will replace Bumil and that their plans will continue.
6. Clear the table
Pregnant women can start cleaning the table so that substitute employees of pregnant women during leave can work comfortably. Pregnant women can also bring home items that are considered important.
7. Look for a caregiver or daycare center
Finding the right caregivers for your Little One who will be born can take a long time. In order not to rush, pregnant women can start this search earlier, before entering the period of leave. That way, after the maternity leave period has expired, pregnant women already know where to entrust the care of the Little One.
Well , with the steps above, hopefully the maternity leave will be comfortable and work in the office can still be resolved. Congratulations on preparing maternity leave, pregnant women!
