We've never had a pregnant staff member while I have been in charge so this is all new to me. A staff member is pregnant with twins due in december, she is finishing work at the end of september and won't be returning (her choice). She earns no more than £72 a week so do we pay her smp does anyone know? I have looked on here http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/helpsheets/e15.pdf and totally confused myself but on page 8 of the linked booklet it says to qualify she has to earn on average £102 per week?? Can anyone give me any ideas please??

I was offered a position as leader of a new playgroup which opened in January of this year.

Initially when the job was advertised it stated 25 hours per week and the exact hours to be worked. After starting employment these hours were reduced to 22 1/2 hours with the understanding that this would be corrected quite quickly - some disagreement with the Committee members questioning the work I was undertaking. I received verbal confirmation a couple of weeks later that the hours were back up to 25. However I have discovered that for the past 6 months I hav…
