These provisions are established in the <strong>UPH Foundation Company Regulations 2023\u20132025 as well as the Circular Letter No. 244A\/R-UPH\/VIII\/2022 on Employee Rights<\/strong>, which apply across the educational institutions and university entities managed by Yayasan Universitas Pelita Harapan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key provisions of UPH\u2019s maternity and family-related leave policy include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Three-month paid maternity leave: Under Article 22 (Maternity Leave)<\/strong>, female employees are entitled to three months of paid maternity leave, consisting of 1.5 months before childbirth and 1.5 months after childbirth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Support following pregnancy loss: <\/strong>Female employees who experience a miscarriage are entitled to <strong>1.5 months of leave, or a period <\/strong>determined based on a medical certificate issued by an obstetrician or midwife.<strong> (Art. 22)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Extension when medically necessary: <\/strong>Maternity leave may be extended when the employee\u2019s condition presents a health risk, supported by a medical certificate. In such circumstances, provisions governing salary during sick leave apply.<strong> (Art. 22)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Clear administrative provisions: <\/strong>Employees requesting maternity leave must submit supporting documentation at least 10 working days before the leave begins. The regulations also specify how maternity leave interacts with Foundation and academic holidays.<strong> (Art. 22)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Paid paternity leave:<\/strong> <strong>Under Article 23, <\/strong>male employees receive two days of paid leave when their wives give birth or experience a miscarriage, enabling them to accompany and support their spouses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Protection of employee leave rights: <\/strong>These provisions are reinforced by <strong>Circular Letter No. 244A\/R-UPH\/VIII\/2022 on Employee Rights at Universitas Pelita Harapan,<\/strong> which emphasises the<strong> protection and fulfilment of employee rights and requires employees\u2019 leave entitlements to be exercised in accordance with applicable provisions and employee needs.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Through these provisions, UPH provides a formal framework supporting employees during pregnancy, childbirth, pregnancy loss, and early family responsibilities. The combination of paid maternity and paternity leave, medically supported extensions, and institutional protection of employee leave rights demonstrates UPH\u2019s commitment to a supportive, equitable, and family-friendly working environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!selectors.core.file.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/sdgs.uph.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/244A-2022-Surat-Edaran-Hak-Hak-Karyawan.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Circular Letter No. 244A\/R-UPH\/VIII\/2022 on Employee Rights at Universitas Pelita Harapan.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-a1243c54-013b-4ab0-acbe-16292707ffc3\" href=\"https:\/\/sdgs.uph.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/244A-2022-Surat-Edaran-Hak-Hak-Karyawan.pdf\">Circular Letter No. 244A\/R-UPH\/VIII\/2022 on Employee Rights at Universitas Pelita Harapan<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sdgs.uph.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/244A-2022-Surat-Edaran-Hak-Hak-Karyawan.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-a1243c54-013b-4ab0-acbe-16292707ffc3\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!selectors.core.file.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/sdgs.uph.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Peraturan-Perusahaan-YUPH-2023-2025.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of UPH Foundation Company Rules 2023-2025.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-b19a26f8-a36b-4c4e-b8a9-bc87ed42d04d\" href=\"https:\/\/sdgs.uph.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Peraturan-Perusahaan-YUPH-2023-2025.pdf\">UPH Foundation Company Rules 2023-2025<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sdgs.uph.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Peraturan-Perusahaan-YUPH-2023-2025.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-b19a26f8-a36b-4c4e-b8a9-bc87ed42d04d\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UPH Maternity Policy Universitas Pelita Harapan (UPH) demonstrates its commitment to gender equality and family-friendly employment practices through formal provisions governing maternity and paternity leave.
