SSS-covered female faculty members who have paid at least three (3) monthly SSS maternity contributions in the twelve-month period preceding childbirth, abortion or miscarriage are entitled to a maternity leave with pay.
A maternity leave with pay is for sixty (60) days in cases of normal delivery, abortion or miscarriage and for seventy eight (78) days in case of caesarean delivery.
The concerned employee will continue to receive her pay on the regular paydays as an advance from the school. This advance by the school shall be reimbursed by the SSS up to the maximum of the SSS maternity benefit.
Questions regarding computations of maternity leave pay may be directed to the Human Resource Administration and Development Office ( HRADO).
