The paper presents the results of the diagnostic survey concerning conditions of employment and professional consequences for women resulting from maternity. The analysis of opinions gathered showed mitigating difficulties in combining the roles of a mother and an employee depends mainly on the attitude of the employer as well as availability of nursery schools and/or kindergartens. The consequences of maternity include some limitations in the professional activity but also changes in attitudes and values increasing the employee competences of women such as feeling of responsibility, better self-organisation, patience and need for stabilisation. The legal regulations, information policy and proliferation of the best examples serve liquidation of employee limitations resulting from maternity and a change of the traditional mentality and paradigms hindering reconciliation of the roles of the mother and the employee.
