Q: My benefits packages have been removed from the employee handbook in relation to my maternity pay. There was no consultation with the staff about this and I would like to know if the company I work for can do this?

Your employees have potentially committed a breach of contract and they have no right to unilaterally vary contracts. They should have followed a consultation process at the time.
