kaplinsky gives birth again....

Congratulations to her but given that she was hired by Five to present two evening news slots, now only presents one and has gone on maternity leave twice in just over two years it made me think.
Should employers be able to terminate employment contracts if the employee take "excessive" leave for health or maternity reasons? If I were a Five exec I would be furious for example as she is clearly taking the michael.

Terminating contracts for excessive health absences is a bit ott in my opinion but agree with you on maternity leave. Women who choose to have a child should not expect their employer to keep their job open for them to return after 6 months.Should employers be able to terminate employment contracts if the employee take "excessive" leave for health or maternity reasons?

Having a child is not an illness but a lifestyle choice.
Don’t agree with terminating her contract, as a self employed contractor, there will no doubt be a substitution clause in her contract to cover this sort of stuff ................ however I would have strong reservations about renewing it, more than likely option for a 1 month rolling contract just in case she goes for child number 3

Just pay her Statutory Maternity Pay . . . not her usual salary. That would see how much she wants have kids right now.
she's a self employed contractor.................. as we all know that equals "no work no pay" so she is apparently losing £11.5k per weekA future fair for all.....

Companies too pay NI, in addition to that paid by employees. What is that for if not to pay for those who can't/won't/don't work?
