need a pt job. need ideas

ok i need a pt job thats monday to firday type thing. any ideas on what i could do, oh and who would hire me being pregnant. does any one know if i would have any rights as well with a empolyer being pregnant? know i wouldn't get smp but would i get anything else?

Yes you are entitled to the ame rites as anyone else and you can claim smp of the social or benifits i do believe,have a look on their web site.

been trying to get on the site but it keeps crashing on me all the time.
typical!
was looking at admin, but i don't have any thing to offer empolyer lol. needs to be something i can sort of wing.

have you thought about temping?? you might find a 3 month contract through an agency

they will just get you to do some keyboard tests and stuff probably and then place you somewhere

yeh know what you mean, but what would i do after the temp works finished? would i get any sort of mat pay? i don't think i would, and i know that the working tax credit would stop cos just looked at that so be screwed again.

What happens if you don't qualify for SMP?Maternity Allowance
If you can't get SMP from your employer, you might get Maternity Allowance (MA) if you:

are employed
are self-employed and pay Class 2 National Insurance contributions or
have a Small Earnings Exception certificate
are not employed but have worked close to or during your pregnancy
The conditions are that you:

worked (either on an employed or self employed basis) for at least 26 of the 66 weeks before the week your baby was due (a part week counts as a full week).
earned an average of £30 over any 13 of those 66 weeks
The standard rate of MA is £112.75 or 90 per cent of your average weekly earnings, whichever is less. If your expected week of childbirth begins on or after 1 April 2007, it is paid for up to 39 weeks. If your expected week of childbirth was earlier than this then it is paid for up to 26 weeks. MA is not liable to income tax or NI contributions.

Does that help???

Even if you work for a company you will have joined them too late to get SMP now

i think i would be to late to get ma by the looks of it as well..
i haven't worked now since i went on mat leave when i was preg's with charlie!

oh dear

I don't know what to suggest hun

Kristy, if you do not get any other sort of maternity benefits then you would DFEFINATELY be entitled to a one-off payment of £500, as long as you already claim your child benefits, then I believe you can claim for the grant from 28 weeks. think you can even get the form from the post office!

Good luck hun x x
