Yes, pag employed ay entitled sa 105 (calendar) days na maternity leave which you can avail as early as 45 days before your EDD. Yes, may sweldo ka pa rin during your leave unless ipa-advance mo sa company. No, hindi sya separate sa sss matben dahil technically speaking, sa sss kukunin ng employer yung ipapa-sweldo sayo during your mat leave. So unless govt employee ka and at the same time ay Voluntary member ng sss, one and the same lang yung makukuha mong salary during mat leave and sss matben.
