• or provide a doctor's certificate.

You will receive an information sheet from CM that you complete and return.

CM requests your salary details from your employer or unemployment service.

You receive a benefit during your maternity leave (also called maternity leave).

Here you will find information about maternity leave for your partner.

In the event of hospitalization or death, your partner can in some cases take converted maternity leave .

Do you want to breastfeed? Then inform your employer 2 months before you return to work that you will be taking breastfeeding breaks.

Provide your employer every month during the breastfeeding period:

• a certificate from an infant health clinic;
• or a medical certificate showing that you are breastfeeding.

Provide CM with an application form for each month in which you take a few hours of breastfeeding break . Your employer must complete the form. He can also transmit the data electronically to CM. In that case, you only need to complete your part on the form.
