✅ Good news: you can resign while on leave
✅ Your current employer still pays the full 39 weeks of statutory maternity pay 💷
But ⚠️ watch out for contractual enhancements — you may need to repay them if your policies say so, and you’ll miss out on future benefits and parental protections.
📌 Tip: Align your notice with the end of leave so you don’t have to return.
💬 Always check your contract and consider reaching out to HR or an adviser.
