The Confirmation Of Maternity Leave Letter is a crucial document used in Dutch employment contexts to formally acknowledge and detail an employee's maternity leave arrangements. This document should be issued once an employee has notified their employer of their pregnancy and intended leave dates. Under Dutch law, specifically the Work and Care Act (WAZO), employees are entitled to 16 weeks of maternity leave with full pay. The letter serves multiple purposes: it confirms receipt of the pregnancy notification, documents the agreed-upon leave dates, outlines salary continuation and benefits maintenance during the leave period, and provides important contact information. This formal confirmation helps ensure clear communication between employer and employee while demonstrating compliance with Dutch employment legislation. The letter should be issued well in advance of the intended leave start date to allow for proper planning and arrangements.
