Ask Our AttorneysPregnancy discrimination occurs when an employer treats an employee or job applicant unfairly due to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. This can include denial of hiring, demotion, firing, or unequal treatment.
No. In most places, it is illegal for an employer to fire, refuse to hire, or penalize someone because of pregnancy. Pregnant employees are generally protected under employment and anti-discrimination laws.
Pregnant employees are often entitled to reasonable accommodations such as modified duties, medical leave, or flexible work arrangements, depending on the law and medical needs.
You should document all incidents, inform HR or management, and keep records of communication. If the issue continues, you can file a complaint with a labor authority or consult an employment attorney for legal guidance.
