📘 About the Maternity Leave & CCL Joining Date Calculator

After maternity leave, Child Care Leave (CCL) or any other leave, you need to know the exact date on which to rejoin duty. This calculator counts the leave days from your start date — including weekends and holidays, as leave rules do — and gives the last day of leave and your joining date.

Central government women employees get 180 days of maternity leave for each of the first two children, and up to 730 days of Child Care Leave in their whole service.
