Should You File A Pregnancy Discrimination Claim?
If you believe you may have a claim for pregnancy-related job discrimination, you should see an attorney. Under California law, victims of pregnancy discrimination may be entitled to back pay, punitive penalties, and compensation for emotional pain and suffering.
However, because each situation is unique, it is critical that you contact an expert employment lawyer about your alternatives. Pregnancy discrimination claims must be filed within a very short time frame. Therefore, the longer you delay, the less likely you will be able to win your case.
Employers are required to provide reasonable accommodations to employees who are protected under California’s pregnancy discrimination laws, unless doing so would cause an undue hardship to the employer. Examples of reasonable accommodations may include modified job duties, additional breaks, or time off for medical appointments.
