&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;MUMBAI: &lt;/em&gt;A year ago, when the Maternity Benefit (Amendment) Act came into force, it was considered a landmark reform that positioned India among the top progressive nations, enabling women to stay in the workforce after childbirth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The well-intentioned amendment entitles working women to a 26-week paid leave, up from the earlier 12 weeks, something that progressive companies were already offering. With India&amp;rsquo;s women workforce participation rate dwindling from about 37% in 2005 to 27% in 2013, the Act is aimed at bringing women back into employment to boost the country&amp;rsquo;s income. However, for some of the companies, cost implications are now turning out to be greater than the intention of pursuing an inclusive policy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the midst of several divergent voices on the Act, a study by TeamLease presents stark statistics that provide a rather grim view on women&amp;rsquo;s hiring in the short term after the Act. While in the long term, women&amp;rsquo;s workforce participation rate may get a fillip, the TeamLease report shared exclusively with TOI has estimated a net job loss of 11-18 lakh women for the fiscal year (FY) 2018-19. This is over and above the average annual attrition rate of women employees in the workforce.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The study was conducted among 300 employers across 10 key sectors &amp;mdash; aviation, BPO/ITeS, real estate, education, e-commerce, BFSI, IT, manufacturing, retail and tourism. TeamLease Services co-founder and executive VP Rituparna Chakraborty said, &amp;ldquo;Historical data shows that the Indian workforce has been losing women workers at the rate of 28 lakh per year for seven years from 2004-05 to 2011-12. The net job loss (11-18 lakh for 10 sectors for FY19) over and above this number is attributable solely to the Amended Maternity Act.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chakraborty said if the job loss, attributable to the Amended Maternity Act, is estimated for all the sectors in the country, the number would go up substantially to an estimated 1-1.2 crore. &amp;ldquo;Our mission at TeamLease is to put India to work. The endeavour is unfulfilled if half the population of India is at a disadvantage in the talent market,&amp;rdquo; she said.&lt;br /&gt;

The study was conducted among 300 employers across 10 key sectors &amp;mdash; aviation, BPO/ITeS, real estate, education, e-commerce, BFSI, IT, manufacturing, retail and tourism. TeamLease Services co-founder and executive VP Rituparna Chakraborty said, &amp;ldquo;Historical data shows that the Indian workforce has been losing women workers at the rate of 28 lakh per year for seven years from 2004-05 to 2011-12. The net job loss (11-18 lakh for 10 sectors for FY19) over and above this number is attributable solely to the Amended Maternity Act.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chakraborty said if the job loss, attributable to the Amended Maternity Act, is estimated for all the sectors in the country, the number would go up substantially to an estimated 1-1.2 crore. &amp;ldquo;Our mission at TeamLease is to put India to work. The endeavour is unfulfilled if half the population of India is at a disadvantage in the talent market,&amp;rdquo; she said.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;MUMBAI: &lt;/em&gt;A year ago, when the Maternity Benefit (Amendment) Act came into force, it was considered a landmark reform that positioned India among the top progressive nations, enabling women to stay in the workforce after childbirth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The well-intentioned amendment entitles working women to a 26-week paid leave, up from the earlier 12 weeks, something that progressive companies were already offering. With India&amp;rsquo;s women workforce participation rate dwindling from about 37% in 2005 to 27% in 2013, the Act is aimed at bringing women back into employment to boost the country&amp;rsquo;s income. However, for some of the companies, cost implications are now turning out to be greater than the intention of pursuing an inclusive policy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the midst of several divergent voices on the Act, a study by TeamLease presents stark statistics that provide a rather grim view on women&amp;rsquo;s hiring in the short term after the Act. While in the long term, women&amp;rsquo;s workforce participation rate may get a fillip, the TeamLease report shared exclusively with TOI has estimated a net job loss of 11-18 lakh women for the fiscal year (FY) 2018-19. This is over and above the average annual attrition rate of women employees in the workforce.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The study was conducted among 300 employers across 10 key sectors &amp;mdash; aviation, BPO/ITeS, real estate, education, e-commerce, BFSI, IT, manufacturing, retail and tourism. TeamLease Services co-founder and executive VP Rituparna Chakraborty said, &amp;ldquo;Historical data shows that the Indian workforce has been losing women workers at the rate of 28 lakh per year for seven years from 2004-05 to 2011-12.

<br />
<em>MUMBAI: </em>A year ago, when the Maternity Benefit (Amendment) Act came into force, it was considered a landmark reform that positioned India among the top progressive nations, enabling women to stay in the workforce after childbirth.<br />
<br />
The well-intentioned amendment entitles working women to a 26-week paid leave, up from the earlier 12 weeks, something that progressive companies were already offering. With India&rsquo;s women workforce participation rate dwindling from about 37% in 2005 to 27% in 2013, the Act is aimed at bringing women back into employment to boost the country&rsquo;s income. However, for some of the companies, cost implications are now turning out to be greater than the intention of pursuing an inclusive policy.<br />
<br />
In the midst of several divergent voices on the Act, a study by TeamLease presents stark statistics that provide a rather grim view on women&rsquo;s hiring in the short term after the Act. While in the long term, women&rsquo;s workforce participation rate may get a fillip, the TeamLease report shared exclusively with TOI has estimated a net job loss of 11-18 lakh women for the fiscal year (FY) 2018-19. This is over and above the average annual attrition rate of women employees in the workforce.<br />
<br />
The study was conducted among 300 employers across 10 key sectors &mdash; aviation, BPO/ITeS, real estate, education, e-commerce, BFSI, IT, manufacturing, retail and tourism. TeamLease Services co-founder and executive VP Rituparna Chakraborty said, &ldquo;Historical data shows that the Indian workforce has been losing women workers at the rate of 28 lakh per year for seven years from 2004-05 to 2011-12. The net job loss (11-18 lakh for 10 sectors for FY19) over and above this number is attributable solely to the Amended Maternity Act.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
Chakraborty said if the job loss, attributable to the Amended Maternity Act, is estimated for all the sectors in the country, the number would go up substantially to an estimated 1-1.2 crore. &ldquo;Our mission at TeamLease is to put India to work. The endeavour is unfulfilled if half the population of India is at a disadvantage in the talent market,&rdquo; she said.<br />
