How long must a female employee work to qualify for the special leave?
To qualify for the special leave, a female employee must have rendered continuous aggregate employment service of at least six months. This six-month service requirement must have been completed within the last 12 months immediately prior to her surgery. This tenure condition is a strict requirement mandated by law under Republic Act No. 9710. It ensures that the employee has a substantial recent employment history with the company before claiming the two-month paid benefit. 17-May-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
