mine was on the basis that if i didnt go back to work for at least 3 months.. then i would have to pay back a percentage of maternity pay...
i really wouldnt worry too much though... if you dont want to go back.. all you need to do is give the month notice as per normal.... they cant do anything about it....
What I do know is that you do not have to pay back statutory maternity pay (6 weeks at 90% pay then 33 weeks standard SMP) if you do not return to work but if your company pays you more than this then you may have to pay some back.
Hope that helps!!
