Has anyone heard or experienced going on maternity leave, then leaving shortly after returning? I'm hearing from my husband's company if he takes pat leave, and leaves shortly after returning, he'd have to repay the wages paid while out on leave. Is this only for pat leave and the person who gives birth wouldn't have to pay back as it's technically disability pay? Trying to weigh my options as I want to get out of my company, but want the mat leave first.

I’ve heard of it happening, but you’re right they can’t pull back state or federal benefits, just any company added time. However I know several people at agency and in house who left right after leave or never returned with no penalty. Depends on the company and the benefits offered.

I want to say I left about 5 months after coming back from mat leave for 2 jobs.

It depends on your company’s policy - should be disclosed in the employee handbook
