Annual Leave & MC

Hello, Anyone knows when MC is used up, can employer force us to take AL? Or will it become unpaid leave? Ever since I got pregnant, my immune system has been very low. I’ve gotten stomach flu twice and a sore throat as well. Including my visits to the doctors, I only left 1 day for this year. I still have prenatal check up in end Oct, Nov and Dec. so I need minimum another 3 days. I don’t really want to touch my AL as I plan to use it to go on maternity leave earlier next year.

If don't want to touch annual leave so the next alternative would be to take unpaid leaves. But, can ur company allow u to take unpaid leave? If cannot then will be more MC or HL already.

My MC only left 1 day. I still have at least 3 more days of prenatal visit. Detailed scan - no MC (will be using AL). Just don’t really want to touch my AL….

You can use AL/PH or off days to cover for your check up days. If you have no more MC and you dont wish to touch the AL/PH then UPL if you and employer agreed on taking it.

Depends on company. Some company allow you to go for regular checkup without any mc/leave as long as u come to work half day. Some will asked u to take annual leave.

you can request HL FROM YOUR oB! I asked for 2 weeks previously as my back aches was severe :)

Same. Whenever I voice out my concerns, they always say it’s normal with pregnancy.

use HL, most of the dr can issue HL eventhough no hospitalisation needed.

AL or NPL
