Technical Bulletins: Maternity Leave In Tennessee, Richard Stokes

MTAS Publications: Technical Bulletins

Under the Tennessee act, a female employee who has been employed for at least 12 consecutive months as a full-time employee by the same employer may be on leave from work up to four months for the purpose of pregnancy, childbirth, and nursing the infant. The law doesn't require employers to provide paid leave to pregnant employees but allows a general right to reinstatement to their former position or a similar position in the organization.

This summary of the 1991 findings is designed to help towns, cities, and others evaluate and compare the data and prepare budgets based on the most up-to-date information.
