Pf deduction during maternity leave

Hi every one,

 

I have a doubt regarding the deduction of PF during maternity leave.

The employee is on a maternity leave for three months and she is not covered under the ESI. (i.e the gross payable is above the ceiling limit of Rs 15,000/-). In this case should the company deduct the employee's contribution to PF and deposit it with PF authorities.

 

Thanks in Advance

the  document on  which  the company allowed the maternity  benefit is enough for the  EPF  purpose,  its medical  records  where the  doctor  prescribes the  leave , and  a  letter  from  employee seeking the  above  benefit with dates mentioned . 

Dear Sir

I just want  to know the form and application  required to be submited by employee under maternity benefit act in oreder to avail the benefit

 

a  simple  leave application annexed  with  medical documents are enough,  where  days  should  be  mentioned required  for  leave . 

be  ensure  about the coompany policy regarding this  benefit whether it applicable or not
