Alberta > Employment Law > Maternity & Parental Leave:Do I have to let my employer know when I am returning to work?Yes. For both maternity leave and parental leave, you must give your employer at least 4 weeks written notice of the date you intend to go back to work. If you are taking the full period of parental leave, or your employer has specified a date for you to return, you must still give written notice of your intention to return to work at least 4 weeks before the leave ends. If you do not provide the written notice, you will not be entitled to return to work unless unforeseeable or unpreventable circumstances prevented you from sending the notice. If you do not return to work on the date stated in the notice, you will not be entitled to return to work unless your return was prevented by unforeseen or unpreventable circumstances.
