depends on the employer, mostly the gov't pays the Mat Leave, and only up to a max of something around $1600 a month. If you got a nice company that values the return of their employees though, they may offer top up or some variation of this to help encourage employees to return to work.

Depends on the type of work and contract benefits they have in place for the employees. If your workplace doesn't guarantee that itself, it's not required to promise a position for you when you are done... mind you, if you're a strong employee, they'd be foolish not to take you back.
