The women in your workforce may feel that taking maternity leave will spell the end of their career in your organisation – and that really does not make good business sense. Skilled workers are hard to find and it is in your interests to encourage mothers to return to work for you after their maternity leave. Returning to a workplace after a long spell away, whether due to pregnancy or sickness , can be a real hurdle for employees and can often result in resignations and if as a company you recognise this then you can easily overcome the problem.
