Maternity Pay

Hi, I have just finished work to have my baby, I had two jobs, one full time and one part time, i will get SMP from my full time job but can anyone tell me if I am entitled to anthing from the second part time job? I had a form from them today to say they cant pay me SMP as my average weekly wages werent high enough, but can I claim maternity allowance for this job even though I am getting SMP from my full time job? Thank you

    You only Get SMP once as far as I know. Its a statutory amuont so they wouldnt pay it twice.
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

  • You can get SMP from both jobs if they both satisfy the conditions, The 2nd job dosen't so unfortunately you won't get anything for this :-(
