[quote=Anonymous]OP, ignore all these people talking about contract or not. You need to be professional and ethical and also do what's best for you. If I were in your firm's position, I would not want you back for a random week or two, just so that you could give notice and attempt to make your maternity leave seem legit. They're going to see right through that. Call them, be up front - tell them you applied for the job a wile ago and got an offer on leave and you are going to take it. Be prepared for them to be pissed and/or come after you for the maternity leave. I doubt they will try to get you to repay the maternity leave but they might. But you're going to look much better and more professional in the long run if you're candid about it and tell them sooner rather than later. As a matter of professionalism, do not go give them some sham 2 weeks and then give 2 weeks notice. That makes you look way worse.[/quote]
