An employee returning from maternity leave is entitled to return to: the position she held immediately before she commenced maternity leave; or, if she was promoted or voluntarily transferred to a position during the maternity leave period (other than to a safe job) to the new position; or, if she worked part-time during the pregnancy because of the pregnancy, to the position she held before she started working part-time.
