posted 18th Jan
Ok could anyone help me, Im having my GTT done on Tues and it means i will be a hr late for work, Do i still get paid for that hour? Is GTT classified as Antenatel care/App?

(Feel like a post whore today hehee)

Quoting Danielle: Jack&Basil'sMom:" Why would you?"

UK has diff laws and in uk

Pregnant employees have 4 key rights:
  • paid time off for antenatal care
  • maternity leave
  • maternity pay
  • protection against unfair treatment, discrimination or dismissal

‘Antenatal care’ isn’t just medical appointments - it can also include antenatal or parenting classes if they’ve been recommended by a doctor or midwife.
Employers can’t change a pregnant employee’s contract terms and conditions without agreement - if they do they are in breach of contract.


So i was wondering if a GTT falls into this catergory, hence i ask for ppl in UK to answer

Sorry, didn't see where you asked for only people in the UK to answer (because you didn't)

But pardon me for asking.

Have you a letter for your appointment? Just take it into work, they have to give your paid time off for pregnancy related appointments and anti natal classes. If you don't have one ask the doc for a note at the appointment. Don't let them pull that "work it back, your not getting paid" crap because its bull!

GTT is covered in this
