Alberta > Employment Law > Maternity & Parental Leave:

Will I get my same job back when I return from maternity or paternal leave?

Not necessarily. Your employer is obliged to reinstate you in the same or a comparable position with wages and benefits equal to those you received when you started your leave. If during your leave the business was discontinued or suspended, you will have priority to get a job if the business starts up within 12 months after the end of your leave.
