EAT Maternity Rights and Parental Leave : Return To Work – The Tribunal appears to have concluded, in relation to Regulation 18 of the Maternity and Paternal Leave Regulations 1999, that because the contract of employment of the Appellant, a Prison Mental Health Lead, described her as a Prison Officer, therefore it must be suitable and appropriate for her to return from maternity leave (after outsourcing of the prison mental services) to be an ordinary prison officer. Remitted for the issue, whether the job offered was suitable and appropriate, to be considered.
