Hello, I hope someone can help....

I am located in NSW and due to return to work Monday after 12 months maternity leave : (...Only problem is work is offering me a different role (within the same department and status)...However I really want my old role.

As I understand, the old role should be mine! Its only in the event of a restructure that they need to offer a role with similar pay/ status?

Can anyone clarify this and point me in the direction of the actual legislation online so I can read.

Many thanks
