{HR Mom} Have a New Baby? Update your Employee Records

The arrival of a baby in the family is such a blessing and of course, life changing.  If you are a working mom, aside from the adjustments that you do at home, you also need to update your employment records as soon as you go back to work after your maternity leave.

Your Company HR cannot automatically update your records.  It is your responsibility to formally inform them of the changes by accomplishing and submitting the necessary forms and requirements.

You cannot update your records with out your baby's birth certificate.

• The original birth certificate is available 2-3 weeks after you gave birth.
• The NSO issued birth certificate will only be available 3-4 months after you gave birth.
• Because you need to update your records as soon as possible, you may request for certified true copies (CTC) at the city hall where your baby's birth certificate was issued.  To avoid the hassle of going back when you need it again, request for at least five (5) CTCs.

So, what do you need to update after giving birth?
