Maternity Pay Questions
3 Answers
Afternoon everyone,
Please can you help me.
My Girlfriend works full time for a Hotel as a waitress. (40 hrs per wk).
She is paid by BACS monthly and therefore pays NI and tax each month.
She has been working there for coming up to a year.
The whole time she has worked there she has never been given a contract of employment and neither do her colleagues.
If she falls pregnant will she be entitled to SMP Maternity pay for 12 months?
Or would she need a contract of employment?
Any help very much appreciated

She has an implied contract of insurance if she is being paid - not having a paper one makes no difference to the employers' obligation to pay Statutory Maternity Pay.
