INTRODUCTION
Federal and provincial legislation protects an employee’s right to take a
maternity leave and outlines the employer’s role in the administration of
benefits during such a leave. The Catholic Independent Schools of Vancouver
Archdiocese’s maternity leave policy is accountable to employment related
legislation and at no time reflects rights that are less than those provided by
federal or provincial legislation.
