NHS maternity pay
Comments
-
Maternity Pay cannot exceed the employee’s standard full rate of pay, therefore if half
pay plus Standard Rate SMP is greater than full pay, Standard Rate SMP will be paid,
plus an amount which brings the total to full pay rate.
Taken from the above policy (in respect of post #5)

Many thanks for the link, will try again looking tonight on our website (oh the joys of night shifts!)
Just wanted to clarify my thinking, to qualify for nhs maternity benefits, on top of SMP do I need to be 12 months employed before actually being pregnant? .. Have been employed for 9 months and we TTC currently, though depending on finances I may only go back part time, if at all (more wishing thinking than anything!)..I know it states you have to return for 3 months or you have to repay...I love food, hate waste and have a penchant for sparkly things ::D
