Teachers: How long did you have to work before getting maternity leave benefits?
I’m curious how long you have to work in a teaching position before you can take extended maternity leave and still have a job to return to when you decide to go back to work.
Thanks!
When I was a teacher, once I was given my permanent teaching contract, then I was also eligible for maternity leave benefits that I had added to my other benefits. In our state, you do not automatically get maternity benefits (pay). Here, a teacher can save up any sick days and use those, and also buy maternity benefits available through the various ins. plans. Also, here in our state, a teacher who returns after 3 months is guaranteed her same exact position in her same classroom. If you return after 3 months up to 1 year, you are given a guaranteed position within the school you were teaching. And finally, if you return after 1 year up to 2 years, you are guaranteed a position within the school district, but not necessarily that school you were at. I went back after our 1st (when she was 9 months) but then resigned once I had our next child. I hope this helps. The best thing to do really is contact your human resources dept. and speak with them.
