What happens if I do not return to work after maternity leave when I intended to do so?
Answer
If staff notify their intention to return to work and either do not do so, or return for a shorter duration than notified, the University has the right to recoup a sum equivalent to the difference between the amount of maternity pay received and the actual entitlement. You should contact Payroll if you want to understand the impact leaving will have on your pay.
