Maternity Leave Benefits

I've tried finding it on the government website but dont' quit understand it. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how many hours you need to qualify, and how far back they calculate your hours? thanks so much

600 hours, and they go back 52 weeks(1 year) from your date of claim. If you are part-time or paid hourly, they use your best certain number of weeks to calculate your entitlement.
