Employment

I faced the exact same problem! I was a perm, worked in the company for a year, it was my first pregnancy and I was about 4-5months pregnant then (this happened in May this year!) During the yearly review usually its just a 1-1 talk between myself and my boss but to my surprise the HR rep joined the discussion as well. I was soo confused but she explained that my boss wasnt happy with my performance, Im not meeting expectations and all those bulls when i’ve been giving my 100% since day 1. All those nonsense they just spitting, all 1 sided and to make me resign on my own (oh and i ended up with 0 bonus! Just because of all those stupid reasons) .. they obv don’t want to pay for my ML since they cant fire a preggy otherwise i’d just report them but I was ready if the situation went that way, ended up going through a Performance Improvement Plan every week (waste of time) just so I can prove my worth. It was tough and mentally-emotionally draining but quitting was not an option. Still in same company and on ML now, will probably look for a diff job soon lol now that im not pregnant.. not staying in a shitty company w this kind of treatment.. Assuming your probation period is ending and thats the reason they still hadn’t confirm your employment then report it! Its definitely unfair!

i faced the same situation. my company extended my probation and then before it ends they terminated me saying poor performance. i was 6months pregnant. you can complaint but its a long process and being pregnant all you want is a peaceful and less stressfull period. so i end up did not complaint but i demanded my maternity payout as i worked for 3 months. and they did. so you can try asking them even if your probation extended. as long as u worked for the conpany for 3 months you are entitled for maternity payout.

no, they should pay maternity leave if you work more than 3months completely and do not quit for any reason they given. if you are PR/Singaporean company shall pay maternity leave whether or not they confirm . you can go MOM website find out and any dispute matter can escalated, but you need to have very very solid evidence they made you discrimination due to your pregnancy

I think this might help. Can report them. https://www.mom.gov.sg/faq/maternity-leave/i-ve-been-dismissed-from-my-job-during-pregnancy-what-can-i-do#:~:text=If%20you've%20worked%20for,file%20a%20claim%20with%20TADM%20.

Hi pls let them know that you will report to TAFEP especially if reason for not confirming has nothing to do with KPI? Did you have a set KPI for your probation? If not, you can use that.

yes you can report. my sister in law did report. I can't remember the outcome but I think she did receive compensation of some sort. at least the company is not let off.

how long u been working? when u started work, r u already pregnant? or just declare u r pregnant?

maternity leave is compulsory and by law covered. it's government paid for half

Are you under probation period? Or are they going to extend your probation?
