I recently had a baby and returned to work after my maternity leave. I returned to work and have been working for two week going on to my third week. I found out friday night that I was not going to get paid until I have a return to work doctor note. I am highly mad. I live on a tight budget. I am a mother of six. I am wondering has anyone gone throw this situation? I found out the woman in HR didn't even report to payroll that I returned to work. I can't figure out why it took her two weeks to even inform me of this situation. I had to go to extreme measures to even make it to work for the third week. I drive an hour an a half one way to work. Top it of gas prices are over the top. I will get my doctor note tomorrow. I did turn in my maternity leave paper work, on that paper work does say when I may return. I just feel violated and bullied. Any Advice will be appricated. Thank you.

Ditto - you should be paid in a timely manner, I don't think they can withhold pay.
