Maternity leave (Malaysia and more generally)

Post by froggle »

Does anybody know how maternity leave works in Malaysia? Does it vary school by school? Are women ever exempt from having paid maternity leave if they haven’t been at a school long enough, in an international school setting?

I worked at a high ranking school in KL and got 3 months maternity (full pay). My contract was that they would offer that as long as you weren’t more than 5 months pregnant when starting with the school. Other teachers were able to negotiate 6 months (3 unpaid) but this was generally if they were renewing contract (I wasn’t).
