Pregnancy Discrimination

Pregnancy and childbirth bring many changes to your life. However, one area they should not detrimentally impact is your employment. A steady wage and medical benefits are particularly crucial when welcoming a child into the world.

Women should not be placed in the difficult position of having to choose between their families and their careers. Fortunately, the law provides important employment protections for women who are pregnant. The federal Pregnancy Discrimination Act and similar state laws generally make it unlawful for employers to discriminate against pregnant women in hiring, compensation, job duties, benefits and disability status. The Family and Medical Leave Act also provides important rights regarding pregnancy- or family-based leave and job security.
